hi, i have a question about my way of programming
if i want to make a program i start with a skeleton and start with
nothing, if i dont know something lets say winsock i go look for sample programs, i start look what each line of code does and what its for and
start recoding to use it in my program.further a long the way i find it easier to go on.
when something isn't working, even if it take me a month i go on til it does work.although i don't know why(because i don't really know how it al works)it doesn't work, i kind of know it but its just like its a littly foggy.
for example i was once working on a program and there was a error somewhere in my code,the whole time i knew wich lines maybe causing the problem
but it took me a month befor i tried it.
and when i want to make a program i will get it done so my question is
am i a programmer or should i stop with its more like a hobby because my education is to low and i want it so bad to be a freelance programmer.
i tried several languages vc++ html css php mysql and now in win32 assembly.
thanks in advance

3 things
1 maybe i am contradicting myself: so what, don't apply to my message i, don't need answer from
arrogant people who think they know how someone is, by reading their letter.
2 i had to learn all of it in english so that makes it a little harder, it's not my language.
i don't had a high adducation what you need for programming so i learned it all by myself
so doesn't that say something for me ?
3 please only answer if you can leave me in my value

for all those people who can please reply
sorry for my poor english but i am sure that it is understandable





thanks for the reactions, and im not giving it up here is where my hart lies and i keep learning.


i know what a pointer is etc. but my problems are that there isn't a good book in my language
and the absence of someone to ask things, most books say how a function works what regs and/or flags
it affects but i can't ask what can we do with the changed flags this is just an example,what i mean is the questions i have i can't ask in programmer groups, the answer i offen get is i have to read more books but the books don't have the answers to the questions i have.
