So while I have not gotten into the programming side of things yet. I can say personally working in the IT support side your never going to know everything. And when I first started that's all I did was ask questions. I feel like in any job they expect you to do so its how you learn.

If anything I feel like if someone was not asking questions. Then there is something wrong. I however personally when Im stuck on something I will ask a more senior colleague, in a way that shows I at least made a solid attempt unless Im just completely stuck.

This way you are at least showing that your willing to try and think something through before just saying hey can you come help. So it does not come off as them doing all the work ect.
