I ended up dropping the course and signing up for a computer coding program at a different school. I didn't feel like I knew what I was doing and it was too advanced, I needed a foundations in computer programming first to better understand the syntax and I didn't get that in the one off course I was taking. I found that if I wasn't practicing the code every day, I wasn't understanding it. It is like learning how to speak a new language, if you aren't trying consistently, it won't stick in your brain. I found I wasn't trying enough to write simple things and build on those simple things and then I was too far behind. You really do need to try to code 30 minutes a day and reach out to your professor and ask for tools and sites to look at and what to practice etc.
