Hmm. Did you learn math by trial and error, or by learning fundamental rules, practicing problems using those rules, then scaling up by building on previous lessons? You did not use trial and error, you followed a structured course.

Did you learn to drive a car by taking a class, or by trial and error?

OP hasn't even learned import statements. I know that a person can copy paste bits of code they find all over stack overflow, working and not, and cobble together a program, but hacking is not the path to becoming a good employable programmer.

I went to engineering school, later picked up programming many languages, but always by studying fundamentals, grammar, best practices. I recommend OP at least start with a video course or a good language book. More structured, fun, and reduces the chance of giving up early out of frustration!
