This is similar to how I learned javascript in almost REPL manner. Started with poking around in chrome developer console with quick copy pasting of code examples from stackoverflow / w3schools. Repeating and customizing until console logged what I wanted. With occasional diversions to understand compilerish.

And once it was working saving the code to the actual file.

My only regret was I discovered breakpoints a bit late. It was fascinating to pause code and just hover over different bits of code variables / parameters and see the data being transformed.
