What do you need to know?

[opaque bough]

Don't you have some uni material regarding that?

[slender pagoda]

I know the syntax and I can write the code to some
extent but i mess up the logic a lot

[grave lark]

What logic?

Please be more specific.

[opaque bough]

That just comes down to practice

[slender pagoda]

Cna i give u an ex from what we had on the exam

[opaque bough]

sure

[slender pagoda]

I cant find anything currently at work i ddint expect a replu this fast 🥲

🐒

[slender pagoda]

I studied for thag exam a lot but i think i did it wrong if that makes sense

[grave lark]

Probably an issue of linking knowledge to creative thinking.
If you cannot think of a solution maybe you are inexperienced with using the knowledge in general.

[slender pagoda]

we had matrices

and adding the number from it together or doing some analysis of them

[slender pagoda]

yeah

i dont know much bout it

even when i think of a solution i struggle to put it into code ig

[grave lark]

Yes, this is a practice issue. Use what you have learned.
Write code that includes what you have learned in something you like.

Keep track of your code snippets.

[slender pagoda]

what does this mean?

[grave lark]

This is how you can structure your progress.

You can review simple examples you have written for yourself to remember what you have learned in case you need it fast.

This folder is called "C BASICS"

[slender pagoda]

What is this written in

oh on discord or?

[grave lark]

I am using Visual Studio Code.

[slender pagoda]

So i can just find this on vsc?

i dont use vsc but i have it downloaded

[grave lark]

No. I have written this for myself.

[slender pagoda]

Oh

can u share it with me somehow?

[grave lark]

You won't learn from the code of others.

Watch the videos I linked you.

[slender pagoda]

okey

is that what you used to learn as well?

[grave lark]

Write an example for each element you want to learn.

I used this first:

I created these snippets and ordered it inside my C BASICS folder.

You will want to look at other full courses.

Skip the parts you already know.

[slender pagoda]

I havw watched most of this but im still failing and struggling 🥲

[grave lark]

Rewrite the parts you don't know and create a snippet example that you can review.

[grave lark]

After you have collected all the stuff you need in "C BASICS" you will have to use the knowledge.

C BASICS is just a folder containing easy examples.

[slender pagoda]

okey

thank you very much

!

[grave lark]

Create a folder for complex projects.

@slender pagoda

Write a project you either like or do code challenges.

[slender pagoda]

i have the examples from school

[grave lark]

Probably just do the tasks for your school.

[slender pagoda]

even they are to advanced for me now

[grave lark]

As long as you can break down the problem into smaller problems you can ask others in groups.

Give me an example you are struggling with.

[slender pagoda]

I dont have anything rn bc i didnt expect a fast response i text now and im at work currently

is it okey if i send u later when i come back and u can answer when ever ur are able to

?

[grave lark]

Sure you can write me.

[slender pagoda]

Okey

thank u

[grave lark]

You are welcome.
