I wish I was able to do coding. Took C++ in high school and Java... it was... rough. lol.
It’s ok. It’s another language. Be glad you can at least speak and type English. Some people like @robanister are still trying to figure that one out!

I assume you know a little programming. Granted it was a 100 high school course, but the end of the year project was we had to create a game. Well. I chose Snake. for some reason, in my head I thought I had it figured out, every time that the snake ate an "apple" it would grow, run into itself, crash, die, etc. Well. I got it to work, but then couldnt for the life of me figure out how to make the "snake" grow a tail, and only would be multiple photos of a snake following itself. I gave up. Got a c-, moved on.

Sounds like me with chemistry class. I could only learn and apply so much.

Teacher pulled me aside after class and told me to be quiet in class, do my work and I’ll get a C. Regardless of my test scores. Just show up. Hand stuff in. And I get a C. She got tired of staying late trying to help me. I just couldn’t get certain things. Looking back I say, maybe bad teacher?!

But I can read it. And understand it lol. I’ve seen some posts and there’s no amount of commas, periods, semicolons, or anything that could save it

Ah my auto correct
I swear. Autocorrect is more invasive and worse that it was a few years ago

It went from subtly correcting things sometimes, and me being like hey that’s convenient

And now it’s invasively changing correct words to incorrect words, changing misspelled words to words seemingly completely unrelated, and ignoring basic spelling errors completely

Worst is when I mistype but it’s close enough and I don’t feel like it’s necessary to fix, then hit send, and THEN it changes the word in front of me to something else and it cannot be stopped

Got a new phone late last year... and yes, auto-correct is exactly that, it's terrible! My old phone seemed to only have issues with words here (coral names and such that aren't common words)

Yes.
Now it’s terrible. Sometimes changes a misspelled word into an entire unrelated sentence.

And worst is they make the dictionary/table for autocorrect hidden. So I cant delete entries and tell it NEVER change this to that.
