#Rust #Udemy
I'm using a Udemy course called, "Rust for Beginners: Learn Rust in 4 Hours"
First, I am no programmer. I barely have enough exposure to be a hobbyist. let's just say I've done a number of hello_world programs. (basic, c++, java, JavaScript) some schooling, some self studied.
and everytime I had to type every bit of it. I think I learned more that way.
This teacher used code editor, and used something called cargo. and zip--bam everything was done for me.
I think of all the hello_world I've written, I learned the least from this one. Not just from the repetition, but because I did literallynothing to the code. It just sprang into existence.
The only thing I had to do was click a button and it compiled and ran.
This is probably a great demonstration of cargo, but it probably shouldn't have been the first element.
So now I've got to deconstruct this a little bit and go back to maybe a raw simple editor. and figure out how to do the compiling on the command line.
I understand that the bells and whistles make things easier for people to know what they're doing, but for people at knew who are new it just skips past a whole bunch of bricks. we need to build the wall as it were.
I don't know if anybody wanted to hear this but I just felt like expressing myself. thanks for reading
