Everything is written in chunks/pieces. If you just work on one at a time and break up your code with comments, it's not so bad. And don't worry ... even "seasoned" programmers are intimidated by long code.

you will find when you first start programming your codes will be quite long but easy for yourself and others to read, the more you learn the shorter your codes will get with alternitive ways to program this is when they can get complicated to read and documentation comments are needed especially if you want others to learn from it👍

Yash Thakkar I was also once like you, I dreaded long codes(even now). But I got an advice from someone that changed my views on lengthy codes. -================ "If the Job is not done, continue coding " while(not_Yet_Done){ keepCoding(); }

Sorry but I mean that I saw long codes and I am fearing from it. I mean I am questioning myself "Will I be able to write such long codes ?". Is this normal ?
