How dumb am I?

If I'm going to uni during the weekend to do some coursework which I do not get at all, how dumb does one need to be, to be coming in during the weekends?
Well you have to be like me, as I don't understand how the eck you are suppose to do this AI coursework in MatLab... it's something similar to programming but it isn't in a way. It's got the coding type but different format D: How the eck?!?! I don't even understand any of it!

I'm dealing with 0s and 1s and I have to find a region of 0s and identify it and then make it change to 1s. Grr!
