Mega Advanced Stuff - I Will never Get There

I am on boolean reasoning and if statements in the beginning Python track and I like to look at the complex things because I want to feel like I am actually capable of something other than the basics and then I realise, I'm not.

It looks super complex and something I would never be able to understand. I am only just on if statements, this is gonna be so bad for me, my self-confidence is rock bottom :(

Hey, don't be so hard on your self! The basics is where everybody starts. It might take some time, but I bet you are smart enough to figure it out. When I was starting out with programming, it seemed hard, but when I got the basics down, it was much easier. I think you will find that most programming languages share some of the same concepts, and when you learn those, it is easy to learn the rest. Whatever you do, make sure you never give up! I believe in you! :)
