A tip for applying what you learned.

Question

I found that without knowing what you want to build, applying concepts that we learn in programming is difficult if not next to impossible. Its like learning how to drive and not knowing where the car is taking you. You will crash. Dont let the car drive you. You drive the car.

Start with a question or problem you have or want to know how to solve. Example, I want users to input a word, then output the length of the word. Next ask the question what concepts can I apply to build a solution.

Answer 1

In your example

1- Write a sentence to capture user input

2 - Write a sentence or method to calculate length

3 - Write a sentence to output length of the input
