How do you remember so many codes?

I've tried to remember the codes that I learn, but I can't find a way to remember them, so please give me suggestions on how to remember easily or quickly.

Easily and/or quickly? The easiest and quickest way is to have a programmer do it for you, then you can easily and quickly accomplish your task through their experience/hard work and effort. How many years have you been programming? Like most things in life, it requires a lot of time, effort, and practice to master programming. So if you haven't put in the time, effort or practice, then you won't see the type of results that you're looking for. Think about it like this. All of the other subjects that you learned in school, was it something you all worked on for a month and then you were a master at it? Or was it stuff that they consistently taught you each and every year while in school? Programming is much more difficult than most academic studies that you learn in grade school, so there is no shortcut to magically knowing it without putting in the time required to learn, study, and put it into practice to gain experience/wisdom. Here is what I recommend: Read through the language fully, even if you don't understand it fully. Practice what you remember. Read through the language again, but this time write down notes of ANYTHING you still don't fully understand. Afterward you'll want to use your notes to extensively research the concepts you wrote down and learn as much as you can on them. Then practice those concepts to solidify what you learned. Keep repeating this process over and over until you no longer have anything to write down on your notes. This is a "quick and easy" way of learning a language if you're consistent and willing to put in what's required to learn the the language. Also, don't get too focused on things in life being "easy or quick," because the reality is that most things that are worth your while are not easy and they're not quick. Many things require hard work that's outside your comfort zone and takes long term planning to reach. Most people quit programming before they even finish the first language because they give up on it too soon. Don't evade difficulty in your life.

You don't. You just get better at relearning what you forgot.

How did you learn to count to 10? How did you learn to read and write? By doing it over and over again. Thats the best and only way to learn a syntax of a language. Its helps to have projects to work on to test you out and get you thinking. The more you do the more you'll learn and remember!

Practice, practice, practice. That and help people out with the language you are trying to learn. I also suggest coding by hand.
