Lol no problem. Just remember that trying random things generally doesnt work for programming issues. Just look at what you have (not necessarily what you want), and what you're trying to do. In that case, you probably could have figured it out. 

Anyways, it's all the learning process, I had to go through the same thing.

In fact, when I started, it took me about a week to understand what a for loop was and how it worked :P

I understood it quickly, however, it took me two weeks before I was comfortable with arrays:)
