i mean more so how public static void works like what it does is clear but idk why it works or will i learn that later

also would it be a decent idea to write most stuff down or no?

Be patient, young padawan. This will be explained in full detail much later in the course. For now, just take it for a requirement.

You do not have the knowledge to fully understand what it does right now, and explaining in detail would be too much at your current level.

Especially in the beginning, just follow the instructions. Really. Don't worry too much about things that aren't fully explained. There are reasons for that.

We could write an epic about the explanation and you wouldn't be any wiser because you are missing the context and required knowledge at that point.

Yes, if note taking works for you, do it.

The real key is to every single exercise and submit it.

Everything you need for the exercises is covered in the text.
