Mise en Place (The Basics)
Welcome to your first module! Think of this as learning your way around a new kitchen. We'll cover the three most essential concepts you need before you can start cooking up code.
- Hello, World! (Displaying Output): This is how your program communicates, like the "ding!" of a microwave. It's the simplest way to confirm your kitchen is set up and working.
- Comments (Leaving Notes): These are notes for yourself or others, like scribbling "use less salt" in a cookbook's margin. The computer ignores them completely.
- Variables (Storing Information): These are your labeled prep bowls for ingredients (data), keeping everything organized and easy to find when your recipe calls for it.
Let's get started.
