coding is one the most important and valuable skill in today's time even the richest person have the company in the technology domain so let me tell what i learn from coding after doing it for last 5 months .

1.CONSISTENCY IS THE KEY

yes you hear it right consistency is the key .coding is like doing mathematics every day you solve a question your sharpen your mind . 3 months of coding consistency make of 3 year ahead from other people who don't code with consistency. even if you do a simple problem you just practicing the syntax of the language it is important .

2. ASKING FOR HELP IS ABSOLUTELY FINE

coding is never be easy to start everyday you find a lot of bugs and errors .sometime you get the logic without dry run it .some day you don't hit the logic even after 2 days ,from my personal experience just ask for help if you stuck don't be hesitate to ask for help every body is a beginner in some point of their coding journey.

3.LANGUAGE DOES NOT MATTER, YOUR PROBLEM SOLVING SKILL MATTER

language does not matter at all . all you need is approach how to solve a particular problem even interviewer's some time do not select if you code the problem correctly. they are interested in your thought process. working on your thought process rather than just learn a lot of language.

4.YOU NEED TO BE VERY GOOD IN GOOGLING THINGS

googling things is not a sin ,just make sure you learn what the thought process of other people and try to grasp their approach , if you are in tech world and you don't have a degree that fine but you have do not have a good googling skill it will make you suffer a lot in tech world.

5.ALL YOU NEED IS LEARNING MINDSET

after doing coding i realize that what your background does not matter . the only thing that matter is learning mindset everything is free in internet you just need to learn things and try to avoid things that makes other people suffer during their journey so make sure always have learning mindset while doing coding .

6. WATCH LESS, IMPLEMENT MORE

try to avoid tutorial hell just because you see a tutorial does not make you good in that thing you always try to implement your learning and try new things and messing around with the code . always remember nobody teach you all things you just new things by experiment with your code the more code the more you learn

7. BE PATIENCE AND NEVER GIVE UP

now this is one the biggest thing that majority of people left coding because of this thing.Coding is not a overnight thing it require a lot of time and it is life learning process you need patience while learning coding at first you do not get the logic you just confuse with the syntax and after all of this you encounter logical and compilation error so be ready to fail and be patience after few days you do
less compilation and logical error just never give up .

8.QUALITY QUESTION >> QUANTITY QUESTION

last but not they least , after crossing the beginner's level try to solve quality question (standard questions ) rather than solving only one type of question or similar pattern problems. there is no fixed number of questions after that you master dsa it depend on person to person some get selected after doing 230 questions and some are not selecting even after 400 questions try to enchance your problem solving skill rather than enchances number of questions.
