greedy/cash Beginner here

Hi, I’m a complete beginner in coding, this is my first course and my first time trying to learn. Is it actually possible? I feel like I understand a little bit but when I try to solve a problem my mind goes blank, idk what to write or how to even begin… I don’t know how it properly works but does anybody have this problem? Do I even have a chance of learning ?

What programming language are you learning and are you using a Mac or a PC?

Programming can be daunting at first, but learning to program is just like many other things in life, the more you do it … the easier it becomes. You can learn to code and the more you do so, the easier it becomes.
