I want to start building things but...

I'm approaching the intermediate section of C# and I love it but all I really do is the coursework and I want to start building things to help cement what I'm learning but I'm not sure I know enough. Being from an art and music background I'm aching to get creative and build something I can see that isn't just the code behind it. Am I jumping the gun a bit and should I just stick on with the coursework and to what I can accomplish from inside the console for now?

Hi Josh,

To get creative and try your newfound superpowers out is a great idea! When you get stuck you can either ask for help here, search on google or see if you can find the information needed in one of the courses. Experimenting is one of the best ways to learn :)

Don't worry about not knowing "enough" to start experimenting, because you do. You will never know everything, so getting started and learning how to learn as you go is nothing but a great idea.

Good luck,

Jonas

Thank you Jonas, that's good advice. I'll go ahead and get stuck right in I guess! I mean, the worst that can happen is I get stuck and have to look for answers on here right? Pretty sure I can handle that. Thanks again :)
