how to get over with debugging and actually move forward
How to get over with debugging 24/7 not making any actual progress when programming? even my task is not literally programming, it's just data science task.
.
(context:
i'm seriously devastated by encountering debugging issues all the time in python code.
i learned basic syntax enough, even learned java and C before so programming isn't new to me.
i used gpt, both making initial code and debugging it, which kept giving me another problem each time.
i tried to analytically solve the problem but still it keeps giving errors.
now i wonder, how is it even possible to do these stuff? )
.
(example:
when i try to run Kprototype clustering (https://kprototypes.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html) on a dataset w/ or w/o GPT's help,
at this line of the code :
clusters = kproto.fit_predict(data['a'].astype(int), 'b')
first time i have data type error,
second time i have NotImplementedError.
Fixing these took all my days w/o any actual progress in the result in the end.
