nokia6300 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I have a serious problem & the problem is that I am unable to understand the logic in programing I read a lot of tutorials etc i have concepts of loops, array, functions etc too but when i try to do something any project i get confuse & the main thing in my mind came 1st where to start it doing. Can some one guide me what should i do. If anyone encounter with same situation help me. I do not want to Quit using AutoIt once again because i quit it many times thinking that I cannot write codes & become a normal programmer but every time i quite after some months i return back to it plz help me i do not want to leave it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted July 2, 2010 Moderators Share Posted July 2, 2010 nokia6300, I already gave you details of the tutorials that exist for AutoIt in this thread. Have you read through them both and tried all the exercises? Have you tried running the simpler examples from the Help file to see if you understand what is going on? And then changed something in the code to see if the result is what you think it will be? This is how everyone learns. Do not worry about making mistakes - we all did (and some of us still do!). Keep at it.

taietel Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 (edited) nokia6300, I teach chemistry for almost 11 yrs and I don't have a solid background in programming. I started using AutoIt few months ago and I find it extremely useful. First of all, you have to think very well what your program is suppose to do. Then, think of what do you need (variables, arrays, functions, graphical elements, external files etc). Then put them together. When you're stuck, read the help file, search the forum and, in the end, ask for help. And about quiting: this is the easiest thing to do! [edit] I have to say that Autoit is kind of addictive.

omikron48 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 (edited) Well, personally, when I'm trying to create a program or read someone else's code, it helps me when I visualize the data flow and manipulations of the process involved. Trying to come up with an algorithm isn't that hard when you start with a single goal then slowly break it down into smaller steps until you reach a point where each step is a program instruction. If a task is to complicated at the start, you can break it down into smaller sub-tasks then work from there. Complicated program code is just a sequence of smaller sub routines that give you a desired output after execution. Making a program is similar to constructing something by hand. You have your tools (programming language, library). You have your materials to work with (data). You just use the tools in what ways you can on the working materials in order to get the end product that you want. The best skills that can help you in programming are problem solving skills and logic. When learning something, you need to understand how it is you are able to best learn something, then find a way to apply that method to everything you need to learn. You can try constructing visual diagrams or models to help you follow the flow of the program so you can understand more what the code is doing and what it is trying to accomplish. If you are new to programming and just starting to learn, you should start with simpler pieces of code - like sorting algorithms, simple mathematical and date calculations, or numerical and string manipulation, then branch off from there. You can't expect to comprehend the more complicated stuff with much success without proper grounding and foundation on the basics.
