Look at example code and adapt them.

Start to do simple programs as soon as u do any topic.... Practice is very important

the biggest mistake you can make as an aspiring programmer is giving up because you don’t think you’re smart enough to learn code. Learning to code has nothing to do with your intelligence.Yes, it’s difficult to learn programming, not because of who you are, but because there are a lot of topics to learn.

Think on paper first learn to solve by writting out programs, algorithms and data structures.

think about any problem you encounter .For example go to a primary class and count how many pupil can't multiply numbers then write an algorithm then try to rewrite it in c language and give it to teachers as a solution for an existed problematic . this is just an example by which you should figure out that being a programmer is not making games but rather to solve problems logically

Haha! Join the club... it happens. But "Don't give up...' Just keep trying and coding will come.

Try try but dont cry.I felt the same when i started programming,but you can practise in the code playground that will help you to develop your code

my best advise would be to write code on paper. write the logic and also yry to solve problems on paper before taking them to your ide. this way ypu will adopt the ability to think critically and avoid making irritating small mistakes logically when u code

Congrats! Learning how to program aint easy. Don't you worry if you "can't" code at the beginning, it's happens a lot with a lot of people. Don't be afraid to try! Follow some tutorials, watch videos... anything that gets you inspired!

Like everything else, theory and practice need to go together. Even if you feel like you are stuck when writing code, you will soon do it faster if you practice. Find any interesting project that you like and focus on it some minutes a day.

Take some codes and read them, practice more and more, after that try to put these code in real needs. Keep going.

U know what is the bicycle and how it works. But if you don't practice you can't ride it ;) And be carefully u should start simple steps, simple programs, and algorithms... You will realize that you are progressing over time. I am the same and I am doing that

You need to consistently code. Start some simple program and do it every day it will help.

I also participated in a web page designing contest even if I don't have a background in coding. Just practice and you'll be good at it.
