Hey everyone, I'm currently an intern working on my very first C# project, and I'm feeling really overwhelmed. Even though I was assigned a relatively simple task, I've been struggling with it for a whole week. I did ask for help, but I'm still not sure how to proceed, and now I'm kind of embarrassed to ask again. I feel like I'm just not getting it and it's making me feel useless. Any advice on how to handle this?

Don't hesitate to ask for help! Everyone has moments where they don’t know what they’re doing, and it’s much better to ask questions than to make mistakes that could be avoided. Being open about your struggles can actually help you learn faster!
Before your internship, what programming experience did you have? If you feel like you need to get the hang of the basics, try using breakpoints to debug your code and understand what each function is doing. That way, you'll get more comfortable with the logic and start contributing more.
I only learned PHP so far; I'm just starting out in my studies.
