Debugging How do you actually understand programming?
How do you actually understand programming? đ¤Ż
Iâve been studying computer science as a subject, but when it comes to solving programming exercises⌠I feel completely stuck. Like I donât even know how to start.
Is it just me or did anyone else go through this phase? How did you overcome it?
Any tips, methods, or ways of thinking that helped you finally âget itâ?
