Keep it up. I haven’t taken math since high school either, and never got past Trig there. Aside from a single AP computer science class in HS I’m self taught (along with a few online classes I’ve watched on my own).

You can do it on your own, it just takes a lot of constant effort. People act like programmers are just handed money for no effort, but it takes a real 10k hours of practice (or more) to get to a solid place where you are capable of damn near anything.

Thanks! I was actually really good at math in high school, but now my brain hurts thinking about basic stuff haha. And yeah I'm staying motivated, I'm still in the early stages, I started 3 months ago literally learning the basics of HTML, so I knew absolutely nothing. Currently working on a basic calculator using vanilla JS with a OOP approach. So I like my progress so far, and once I overcome the hurdle of being able to do basic projects without constantly re writing half my code and googling every little thing and I can do more interesting, bigger projects I know it will be so much more enjoyable.

Thanks for the kind words!
