    <p>Sorry for the newbie question but I really need to understand this .</p> <p>I have tried numerous times to learn programming. Specifically java so i can move on to game development for android/ios. The truth is , i gave up every single time after a few days of self learning. </p> <p>I never had troubles learning anything in my life and as a matter of fact, im a very quick learner and my common sense goes through the roof. For some reason though, programming has challenged me to the limits. </p> <p>What i noticed is that, no matter how hard and complex Java becomes, i still understand the code im reading and what it does. But as for writing it down myself? I couldn't manage that even if it slapped me in the face.</p> <p>With that said , i beg the question... Do i really need to know how to write every single code off by heart? or is reading and understanding the code enough for my goals? I know there are game engines i.e. Unity3d, that were developed specifically for these purposes. I even saw demo games for android built in Unity3d that look astonishing. But its hard to believe that every single game/app developer out their actually sat down and wrote the whole damn code for it. </p> <p>What am i missing here? this is really not making much sense to me. </p> <p>So i guess the main question im trying to ask here is .... Do i need to learn how to write every code off by heart and understand what it means? or is it enough to understand the code and its functionality, to proceed with my goals? if this is the case (with my luck it probably won't be :) ) What will be the best way to proceed from here.</p> <p>Thank you and any replies will be highly appreciated.</p> <p>Take me out of my misery:)</p> <p>Aris </p>
