I Feel Like Giving Up..

[ExtremeDevilz]

firstly hello everyone.

I have been trying to learn programming for like a year now,but only to know I have failed each time

I went from

C# - > C/++ - > Java - > PHP


Kept on changing language every time

I started loving programming after found out what you can do with it,I have some online friends who are professional programmers but they are always busy and I dont think they have the time to teach me.

I know basics like input,output,loops,arrays

only to know I keep on forgetting it,people complain I have change programming lang before even knowing on by hard.

I find C# easy to learn and I really want to learn it but I hate books/online tut which comes up with wall of text and history about C# so I need help

Programming isn't for everyone. Maybe a hobby like photography or collecting coins will better suit you.

[ExtremeDevilz]

no way.I love programming I just having hard time learning it

Don't give up Anything and everything you do in life involves hard work and of course commitment! If you give up now, you might be working hard but your not showing commitment towards your passion!

Don't give up, keep going, keep learning, keep practicing, try your best and you shall succeed, no matter how long it takes.

You'll have to stick with a language at some point, or you'll just keep relearning the basics. Ultimately, you will probably need at least an ebook, even if there IS a lot of text that is about history. That history can explain a LOT of why things are the way they are.

Whatever you do don't give up if you really like doing this. WingedPanther is right though you will need to read what you can or watch videos on youtube or something to help you learn and you will need to pic one of those languages to learn so you know what tutorials you are looking for.

Well, maybe you just need orientation, school does that job well, aren't you interested in university?

Hey, dont give up. If you like what you do, then you will be good at it. Try programming something simple, like a small game or something - and then move onto more complex programs. You'll soon realise when/how/why to use programming concepts. Good luck!

While learning python I've found I keep forgetting about certain syntaxes. Wich is why i always try to have references for the things i learn. For example I've been using pygame very frequently but remembering all the functions is hard so i have Pygame Documentation bookmarked and ready to be up in a few clicks if i need to check something out. I also always have The Python Standard Library — Python v2.6.4 documentation somewhere close.

If you learn something once you should be able to remember it by looking at its correct syntax and a few words about it. So you dont have to go through books and text that give all the logic behind it. Most languages should have some kind off reference site you can bookmark and keep close. And if you for some reason don't like internet site you can use a book and keep reference points in it.

If you don't know what i mean its like having a formula book in calculus.

Set a project for yourself like creating a copy of the windows calculator and write down all the steps and things you need to do on a piece of paper. As you work through the logic of the program look up anything you might be struggling with on Google. Also try video tutorials and watch as many as you can and try to replicate what they are doing in the tutorial. The more you work at it and the more you practice the better you are going to be.
