Seconding this. It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the seeming combinatorial complexity of things. Just start a little personal wiki (eg, arrow syntax, structural typing, etc) and it’ll help you decompose things into more easily understandable pieces (it’s easier to multiply 7x5x21x22 than to factor 16170, if that makes sense).

It does and it sets a good perspective on the problem at hand. Thank you.
