I’ve been doing C for a bit over 2 weeks, and I’m still slow. I’m not completely new to programming since I did a bit of other langs(I didn’t get good at any of them though). I’m still slow. And I’m slow on projects too. How do I get faster? Is it just more practice and that’s it? Can you guys share some tips as to how to be more efficient with my time when I’m programming?
Yep, repeatedly writing code = less you need to think about certain things like “Uh, what do I type at the top when I want to output text to the console?”. The more you code the more things will be second nature to you and you can just zip through them to other stuff
2 weeks?! And you expect to be fast? Is this a troll post?
Say, three to six months or more, is how long? Say you spend a few hours a week coding
You can’t expedite the procedure. Try enjoying yourself while you’re at it rather than concentrating on the final result. The fact is, you’ll never be intelligent enough or quick enough. Nobody is, and those who claim to be are telling lies. An authentic expert is a lifelong learner. Make an effort to accept your discomfort.
Getting good at short codes and aliases, etc. Have a fun note-taking system. Make sure your IDEs n things are optimized for your architecture / use-cases with plugins and that sorta thing.
I might not be the fastest but my stuff works a lot better than the stuff some of my colleagues turn out. Focus on doing it well and not fast.
