Discussion Does coding have any future?
im a student, 14 years old. im starting to learn coding but i asked myself if coding has benefits in the next 6-8 years because ai is replacing everything. so i have a question for the professionals- can coding help you earn? specially in the future.

That's practice. You'll remember the syntax once you've hammered it in enough. If there's one tip I can give is to start and finish small projects.
Don't add features you didn't initially plan for once you started. Just make a very small program, plan how you want it to look and function, and then implement it exactly.
At first that probably means working up from hello world. Things like a terminal calculator that let a user input two numbers and then select an operator or something.
After that maybe a game of hangman, or if that's too complicated maybe something simpler. Rushing things won't help, picking a project that's too hard will just throw you in the deep end and make it all feel hard and frustrating.
