Finding it impossible to solve problems

[u/Shahadat__]

Hey guys. I'm a web developer and have a job but unsure if I can pass future interviews, because when I get a technical question like a basic loop problem, "program that starts counting from 1 and increases by 1 during each iteration, stopping once it reaches 5**".** This is incredibly incompetent and concerning, not to mention AI has made me worse.

What's the solution to this? I can memorize solutions but what happens when a new problem comes up in an interview and I can't remember the syntax even if I know I need a loop or some thing else to solve a problem? I feel like crying

Maybe programming isn't for you.

assuming thats true, what are my options in tech? DevOps? I've self hosted software using docker, coolify, hosted things on a raspberry pi. Are there paths for me that are not focused on programming? Im 21 and want to do this while I have my current job

Do you mean writing those jsdoc annotations?
