The big, uncomfortable jump from 1st lesson to 2nd

I was lulled by the ease with which the first lesson was conducted; however, the second one proved to be just the opposite in terms of difficulty… Without continuity, which should have been easy, the sudden rise in complexity, transformed it so hard to adapt and keep up with everything. This sudden change not only challenged my capabilities but also shook my confidence, whereby doubts about my potential and progress set in.

@programmernum1 Did you follow the Learning path on the “Learn” page or use one of the lists on “Overview” or “Practice” pages?

Only the “Learn” page presents lessons in an order suitable for learning the language as a beginner. The other pages present a mix to challenge yourself after you followed the Learning path.

@programmernum1 Exercism’s language tracks aren’t designed for total beginners, so if the jump was too hard, you’re probably not quite ready for them yet.

Instead, check out Exercism’s Bootcamp to teach you to code from scratch.
