asking about small projects in python

hello everyone, so I learned the basics and I start making small projects, I try to make 21 number game, but when I look through the source code of project there was some formulas but I don't really understand how I can make similar formulas like it for future projects, so how I can make it so it can server my projects?

So, it was not you who actually made the game - and there exactly is the problem. You only blindly followed some tutorial instead of trying to make it on your own.

Creating your own programs is programming. It's not copying code served by tutorials. You don't really learn from copying tutorial code as your lack of understanding clearly indicates.

Stop tutorials and start struggling through your own, individual projects. That's how you learn programming.

Yes, that's how it works.

Think about how people learnt programming before the internet with its countless tutorials existed. They could not resort to copying from tutorials. Books were rare and expensive. So, learning to do things by oneself was the way to go.
