Here's an analogy of sorts that might help get my point across.
Any Python program running vs. A human running.
To experience the human running, you first must 'learn human'. I get a book. Chapter 1 is the foot, chapter 2 is hair, chapter 3 is the stomach. I'm now 3 weeks into learning 'human' and I no clue what this 'human' thing and more importantly how these parts that I've read about in 1,2 and 3 fit together in some way that ends up as a human, then a human running. Then someone gives me a book with the schematic of the entire human body, inside and out. Then I get a video that shows the human walking. Now I get what the foot in chapter 1 is about, how it fits, what it does and why...
Now take me and Python (and for this analogy Python could be any coding software). I get a book. Chapter 1 is strings, chapter 2 is loops, chapter 3 is.... I'm at the same place I was with the human and chapters 1-3 UNTIL I saw the entire body.
Am I making any more sense now?
