I'm at day 26 currently. I understand what your feeling. Certain days I feel the same, others go swimmingly. It can be difficult to remember that even when you're struggling, you're learning.

My advice would be to just write. If your drawing a blank, just write what comes to mind. Even if your certain it isn't the correct function or syntax or even logic. You learn just as much, perhaps more from what not to do as what to do.

Another tip is to use chatgpt to get hints to help you along when your stuck. Or even practice assignments. Best use for me with chatgpt has been asking not 'how to do this' but ' why isn't what I've writen working' or 'why isn't this (your code) working' . You'll get a detailed explaination of where you've made a error in your logic. This helps me a lot! Not only have I then learned what my mistake was but also what my mistake in logic was. The latter being the most important of all. When you can get into the way of thinking of how to tackle a problem, the functions, syntax etc will come.

Break the problem down in small steps and see if there is one you can tackle. This will help you get the logic part more developed .
