    Hi i'm really struggling with this in college, Does anyone have any advice on how to get better. I've looked at lots of tutorials online but there always a bit different from what i'm doing. I've also tried to get grinds but haven't found anyone to help and i'm running out of time.

    I'm struggling with the code and the reports :(

    Hi Joe,
    Where exactly are you struggling? Is it with syntax or programming concepts or something else? IMO the best way to get good at coding is practise. Start with the basic stuff like if statements and looping and make sure you understand them and build up from there. Mess with code and see what you can do with it.

    My own personal experience was I really struggled through labs in college and felt like I was going nowhere. I kept plugging away and playing with what we were doing and I began to understand and develop my knowledge. Its slow and a little tough at first but once you get into it other things fall into place and begins to make sense. The other thing to do is talk to your lecturer and lab assistants and get their help.

    Hi,

    This works for me: Practice.
    You learner faster by practising and if you get stuck on a problem, research about it.
