That was a long time ago. I probably couldn't do any of that math to save my life without pulling out a calculator or opening a spreadsheet. What a waste of money...
Coding takes a certain type of personality. It can be very tedious and frustrating at times. One little error in a line can throw everything off so attention to detail is a must have with coding/programming. I just look at it like a big puzzle trying to be put together.
