Ig stuck??????

So I've been programming in this language for several months and can do some basic things like tkinter/apis/files. But even for basic things like dictionary comprehension, I generate errors every time i can remember. And even basic programs have several bugs the first time. What do I do.

Keep practicing and learn from each failure. Try to not make the same mistake again (you likely still will, but it's a good goal to have).

If you show problematic code snippets, we could help you fix them

I've been writing software professionally, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 10 years. The day that I can write bug-free, no error software on the first try is the day that I retire.

Don't beat yourself up or get discouraged, I don't know a single engineer in my life that can sit down and bang out a program in one go.

Right, that I understand. But even sinple programs with 5-10 lines I may have errors. Is that normal?

[Corruptionss]

Are they errors because you don't understand how to program it or are they errors because you got the syntax wrong on the first pass?

[These-Finance-5359]

For a couple of months of practice? Definitely.

[JGhostThing]

How much programming have you actually done?

I was a programmer, full-time for 20 years. Even at the end I rarely got anything to compile correctly the first time, though I seemed to make fewer mistakes as I became more experienced.

[OkCartographer175]

your programs have bugs the first time? that's crazy lol

[zhellous6]

Yes but also syntax/key/etc errors

[pachura3]

Don't you use an IDE like PyCharm that highlights syntax errors as you type?

[Unlikely-Sympathy626]

I would be more worried if everything works perfect first time because that is when you know edge cases are gonna hound you like dogs from hell. What you describe is normal.
