Sure, you've got a point. I don't agree completely with it, but I see where you're coming from.
But what confuses me is why you chose to make a statement like this in this particular topic. There are many topics that are far more spamish than this in [Turing Help].

Well, they are entirely different issues. Oh I agree that complaining about the walkthrough is akin to saying "I'm lazy, I couldn't be bothered reading the walkthrough, please hold my hand." If I complained about every post I didn't agree with that's all I would be posting. As you may know, I've been teaching Computer Science for eleven years. What I key into are issues that effect learing. From what vahnx wrote, I'd imagine that he would prefer you just take his code and fix it. I don't think that's in his best interests however.

You people do not understand. The Turing Walkthrough isn't good help because each explination links to other explinations of terms it's using to explain, therefore and endless loop until it redirects you to the "put" statement. I am computer illeterate. I want things to explain like a retard.

I don't think it is a loop. Sure, the tutorial on arrays requires that you understand variables and the primative data types, but the introductory tutorial that teaches variables and primitive data types does not require that you know arrays.
