Walking through the fog.
At first, I didn't understand a thing; Every video felt like it was spoken in a language I couldn't understand.". Each video just caused frustration, so I sat down with my notebook, played the videos, and wrote down questions—no matter how stupid they seemed. Believe me, I didn't even grasp the concept of "running" code in the most literal sense, but now I know what that means. I learned the…
At first, the author struggled to comprehend the videos they encountered, finding them incomprehensible. Each video only increased their frustration. To make sense of it all, the author started taking notes, writing down questions about the material, regardless of how trivial they might seem. They had no prior understanding of running code, but now they grasp its meaning.
The author realized the fundamental distinction between software and hardware, acknowledging that building a strong foundation begins with comprehending even the most basic concepts.
Once they cleared up some doubts, the author decided to explore Python. Initially, they found it fascinating and believed it to be almost magical, capable of performing any task. However, upon realizing that Python involves calculations and data storage, they struggled to fully grasp its capabilities. They suspect this may be due to their inexperience, but Python remains far from being capable of doing everything.
The author conducted research and discovered that Python is a tool meant to complement others, much like a carpenter's toolbox. A single screw cannot build an entire piece of furniture, and similarly, Python is just one piece of the puzzle. Now, the author must delve deeper into understanding how each tool functions and how they all work together in harmony.
