That’s why I included “do research”. I absolutely agree that reinventing everything is not the way forward, but I also think it’s important to get stuck on a problem before looking up what the possible solutions are, because that is when you are in the best position to understand them and how / why they work to solve the problems.
If you write nested if after nested if, hopefully at some point you go “hold on, is there a better way?” And then you do research and learn. That is not to say that learning for knowledge’s sake is bad. It isn’t. In fact it’s great. But it might also be a bit dull to just follow tutorials and such.
