Problem solving

Question

Is it ok to look at a solution of a problem if we don't try to solve it too hard, but still try and we see that it is hard, or should we keep trying for longer?

Answer 1

Don't worry, I'm not cheater 😂 my programming is never homework because school teaches me nothing and I have to learn by myself... but thanks anyways

Answer 2

Depends. If you are doing a homework assignment, you should have been taught everything you need to figure it out and really shouldn't. However, if you do, you must never steal somebody's code. Try to figure out what they are doing and, once you understand it, code it yourself without looking back.

If you are doing it for fun, learning new tricks or techniques from someone is a great way to expand your knowledge. Once again, do not steal the code.
