I’m a beginner in programming, and I found out I cannot even reproduce a simple number guessing program I have earlier copied from a book.

Is it a beginner issue, or there is more than just continuing to learn to be able to code without hints?

    Keeping it simple, have you tried to solve something on your own? Even in the case here, making something similar but not with the exact code from the book, but a “close enough” solution. And putting your own spin on it that makes sense for your structure.

    I am not exactly a beginner (nor exactly experienced), but I had this moment with a minesweeper clone. I wasn’t quite sure on structure with first attempt. I waited a while and eventually figured out how to actually start and complete it.
