Summary
In this chapter, we discussed the most fundamental concept that we have in programming: a sequence.
Sequential thinking can help us structure our ideas so that we can break them down into smaller pieces. As we have mentioned in this chapter, grasping everything a program needs to do can be hard, so we need a way to be able to focus on the details without losing the overview of what the program needs to do.
The concept of doing things in sequence is also at the very heart of any program, since the instructions we write are executed one after the other. This is important because we need to make sure that these instructions come in the right order.
The instructions we write are made up of statements, and we learned that some statements are short and simple, while others can span several lines and be made up of other statements. Some are smaller building blocks, called expressions. We are now on an abstraction level where we can deal with details such as adding two numbers...
