Programming for Retards 101: Explaining to You As If You're a Child View Thread Reply Hide Esther Wadgeman - Fri, 19 Apr 2019 00:39:57 EST fGSblL+b No.37762 File: 1555648797142.png -(12311B / 12.02KB, 485x303) Thumbnail displayed, click image for full size. I think I might be too retarded to be a programmer. When I am given an assignment for my course work at community college I always have a hard time figuring out what needs to be done. I don't think I am that much of a failure at simple logic, but I'm not a genius so I can't figure out just what it is that I need to do. I am alright with structured programs and sometimes feel as if I excel at that but when it comes to making a bug move position in Java I am lost at the start. I cannot even form an algorithm to save my fucking life. Is there any hope that I would ever grasp everything in programming? I can't even figure out how passing methods/functions in any given language actually works. This is enough to make me contemplate suicide since this means it's one more thing that I would never excel at or one more thing that I would only excel at with the bare minimum. Who else feels this way? 50 posts and 3 images omitted.

I did a coding project for a college professor despite having no prior experience. It was for some pretty important work this dude needed help with to get published, so I'm over-confident and full of myself right now because of my babby's first programming script.All I did was scrape information from some websites. Anyways, how can I make money from my obviously god-tier programming abilities? I need to ride this high of ignorance before I realize I don't know anything about programming. 7 posts omitted.
