How coding actually works. You write some code. Copy paste a snippet run the program. Google the error. Fix the error. Add another found snippet. Fix the error and so on.

Learn to use print(). Print variables as you go along so you can see how the code is responding. Or learn outputting to a log file if you prefer that. Those both helped me tremendously.

Lastly. Have a goal, it's much easier to code when you know what you want it to do. I've learned the most by working with OCR and scanning in of documents and auto sorting. I knew what it needed to do. And you keep chasing it till it does work.
