Have you tried with some kind of understanding of what you are doing or
did you just tried variations of examples you saw somewhere?

That seems totally insufficient.

That is your problem. You are putting all your energy in trying to
get unstuck instead of in learning so that you gain enough understanding
to get yourself unstuck.

You have shown no evidence that this is how you operate in reality. You
like to paint yourself like this, but in reality people still have to
explain to you that when you encouter a syntax error, you may have to
look at previous lines, while that was already explained to you a
number of times. You have a history of coming with the same kind of
problem than previous once that were solved and explained to you.
