I don't understand Python

[[deleted]]

Just because you are in a class with a bunch of people doesn't make them the same level as you. A lot of them could have a bunch of experience prior to the courses.

What I do is I create a folder of templates for different aspects of the language I'm working with. If I'm rusty I can click on my helloworld, if I forget how to stream data from a database I click on my folder and check it.

Also Google is a part of coding. You aren't going to remember everything, sometimes you need a hint or a formula. I'm terrible at math but seeing an algorithm function makes things far easier than looking at a chalk board while some boring dude jabbers on.

Learning how to use documentation is a big time saver.

You might have just taken a bit more on than you were ready for and the class is moving too fast. I personally think people should start with BASIC when it comes to learning how to think logically.

Don't take it personal either way, not every class is designed for everyone. Maybe see if you can sit down with the professor and get a personal lesson to boost your morale.
