Hint: I Already Had The Answer and Didn't Know it...
These are the raw confessions of the growing pains I experience as I learn software engineering. I am learning on my own but with lots of priceless resources online. You'll hear about these resources in my articles. Please pray for me!

How The News of AI Replacing Programmers Affected Me About 9 months to a year ago, I thought all the hard work I'd been doing was turning out to be a waste of time... The word on everyone's lips was,

How I Worked Through Fixing A JavaScript Problem in The CodeHS Curriculum
I am really feeling good right now! I am most certainly still a novice, but I am finally understanding how Javascript operates. I can not explain to you how clueless I was about coding! I was lost and the only thing I could do was pick away at my key...
I finally solved that math problem!
That old friend I reached out to that has a mathematician husband and son. Well, I sent her a picture of the problem, but the solution her husband sent still didn't help, so we set up a video call.
After going over the problem with Mike(that's her husband), the problem became clear...
I actually had the correct answer! The entire time, the solution I worked out was correct. The issue was how I put it in the solution box(it's an online class and thankfully it's self-paced).
I didn't close the parenthesizes, so though I had the correct answer, it wasn't being read correctly by the computer program. I figured out how to put the answer into the system and then finally moved to the next set of problems.
I am proud of myself that I didn't give up. Lesson learned, if I stick with a problem and keep working on it, eventually the solution will present itself.
And many times, probably most, I already know the answer, but it's just as important to know how to put the solution to work so that I receive the correct results.
With these words, I bid you...
Good night
