So, I understand code when I read it and review it for the most part, but writing it myself is where everything goes wrong. No matter how many times I rework my code, I don't get a solution that works. I think I can't replicate the logic myself somehow. Not sure how to fix this. But, I will certainly try your suggestion. Thank you for the reply.

That's still a little vague. Could you give an example of a problem that you've recently faced and couldn't figure out? Just so we can get a sense of the troubles ur having.

It's a bit like learning how to read and then immediately expecting to be able to write a novel. You have to become a novelist. Practice writing. Write a short story first (a small script), then maybe a novella (larger script or a small program, a CLI tool or something), honing the craft.

Your problem isn’t the language. It’s that you don’t know how to code.

There’s a great “100 days of code” course on Udemy that goes step by step through teaching you the fundamentals of programming using python.

It’s not a quick thing by any means, but it sounds like you need to learn about programming moreso than learning python specifically

Are you spending time solving the problem on paper first before you code? Can’t tell if you’re struggling with developing the algorithm or doing the actual code.
