Is Copying Syntax, weakness in programming?

when I programming some code, I have the idea, but every time I quickly jump on Google to copy some syntax or even complete functions . for example the images syntax or a complete code to upload a file. I didn't study in college computer science, but I love programming .. how I become more professional, any help ?

Its nothing wrong to google sometimes. Nobody remember everything. But anyway, just study more. Buy maybe some books of the language You learn, repeat the knowegle You have, do some internet tests. There are many capabilities, you need just some time and willigness.

Copying someone else's work is the worst thing you can do in Programming. I say the most you grind a language the better you'll get no matter how many errors or bugs you get go ahead and Google the error and fix the problem. Look up other code and dissect it and make tweaks to your code to make it better to solve the problem. Also get involved with the programming community the are thousands of communities out there. Good luck.
