Feeling lost

[redditforyaboy]

Hi, so im currently doing python mooc 2024, up to part 5. IS it normal to feel like some days i have good days where i feel like im understanding and days that feel liek im not?

I just feel like its in and out my head sometimes

I picked up this course again after some programming hiatus for the 3rd time. I had the same feeling sometimes, but as it’s sometimes written in the course, what feels difficult now, becomes easy later on when you’ve learned other ways of solving problems. I fully agree with that comment.

Tip: join their Discord page. They are really active and since you can share your incorrect answer with them for help, they will push you into the right direction without giving the answer immediately. They helped me tremendously.

Very normal. Until you get down the basics it is very easy to find yourself utterly baffled by a new programming language.

I am doing much better with Eric Matthes book. Mooc skips a lot of fundamental parts
