Have you ever thought — How to explain programming to the one never faced it before? It could be a problem, as long a new one will not understand you.
So, let's imagine — you have a friend, who is not soiled by computer science, never tried to automate something, never played factorio, never written a single line of code.
So, let's imagine a normal human being.
And let's call him Bill. He is not very good in Maths, just “not good”, but he loves candies!
Your task is to teach Bill some basic(or magic) IT things, you are doing every day. The simplest ones.
So what shall you do first? Basically — FEED HIM!
