I know the question seems rhetorical but after spending a month reading a few books on
Java including Sams Teach Yourself Java in 21 days, and the OCA study guide. I really feel that I have just a broad grasp on all the syntax of the language. Reading the code seems easy, but just getting anything of my own mustered up is proving to be difficult. I went on CodeWars.com and wasn't able to solve a single question, but when I looked at the answers I was like "Ahhh i could've got that". Any advice will help at this point. I'm being tutored by a software developer of 25 years and have chosen not to go to college because he literally tells me every time I see him that I'll easily get a job once I can do such and such things. He says I'm doing well for only being a month in, but I feel like I'm behind. Any links, advice, or comments are appreciated!
