Need Advice: Struggling with Physics & Programming

[symbolipoint]

... I see no reason why ANYONE who puts forth such effort could not learn the material and pass the class.

I guess that's an admirable philosophy for a teacher, but it is wildly unrealistic/false. Some people just aren't smart enough to learn difficult subjects.

Some students are unable to learn well in some particular course the first time through, and need to repeat it; sometimes for more than a single course. This may, depending on specific department, major or related, indicate a need to change major field; otherwise, doing the courses (such as prerequisites), if not too many, TWICE to pass properly is what the student must do.

Reverse engineering is a good idea when you are learning programming.
But before reverse engineering you have to know the basics (variable declariation, conditional statements, loops, etc)

I don't see what is your problem/difficulty when programming? Creating an algorithm? The language syntax?
I think the first thing you have to know is the creation of the algorithm, then it is just syntax.

If you can understand math and physics, then programming is going to be easy for you (in my opinion).
I didn't have trouble because i learned it in my high school and had advantage over the others.

I was a lot younger then, but I had this exact feeling...

Just seem as if it's impossible for me to learn because of how dumb I am.

The subject was extremely difficult but, finally, I was able to master... knot theory !
