Learning programming language is really, really hard. 😢

Welcome to devRant! Have your first ++! It gets easier as you spend more time with it.

Thank you! 😊

Hahaha 😁 thank you!

every beginner programmer thinks its hard at first but it becomes easier in time

Yeah, you're right. It's in the mindset, i guess.

Don't worry, it's not the programming language that's hard. The language is just a tool.
The hard part is still to come. Good luck, you'll make it.

Welcome! I say this: you don't learn a language, you learn how to accomplish things with a language.

It is not hard if you like it, believe me
The more inspired you are, the less time you find learning the language difficult

It's intentionally hard- it's to keep out all those filthy muggles.

You have to learn to think in the language. Don't try to write in your native language and then translate into code, think in code - just like learning a natural human language.

Then build simple "words" (basic commands) into "phrases" such as iterating a fixed number of times, or visiting each element of a list or array in turn. Break problems down into these patterns, thinking how to express the problem you are trying to solve using these patterns.

Keep at it until it begins to "flow".

The way I always learn new languages/tools is to take some nontrivial side project that will sort of force me to immerse myself in the language. I've had the most success learning languages by just giving myself a reason to dive in head first.

May be hard at first, but it only gets easier down the road.

First language tooks ages to learn. Second, more or less a month. Third? A week...

Last time I learnt a new language, I could write a program in it in less than 2 hours :)

(Also: learning is one thing - mastering... that's another thing entirely! ^_^)

Start with BASIC or something similar. Move up as needed or where you feel comfortable.

Have fun with the simple languages then move on to something more complicated and continue to make it fun. Write apps or games you would actually use or have fun with and then move to whatever is less easy...and so on.

Then move to where it is slightly uncomfortable but not too much that it is discouraging. You'll learn with time if you stick with it.

@arcadesdude I wouldn't recommend BASIC for anyone - it's too outdated.

Better IMHO, would be Javascript: you can code with just notepad and a browser, no "strong type" variables... it's more modern, and as easy as BASIC to learn.

who wouldn't understand this: <script>alert("Hello world!");</script>
