It will just be something you will have to get used to whilst working with workspaces. The more you use it, the more comfortable you will become.

That is normal - don't worry, this is part of learning how to solve problems no matter what environment you are given.

A lot of it comes down to being comfortable in any environment -- the IDE and the language are tools. Relying on those tools will make you a "code monkey", the logic and the "computer science" will make you a good programmer. See this as an chance to get better at applying the skills you have learned in a new environment.

yeah but I get so lost with different syntax from other IDE and the way that it used versus the workspace that provided here.. Its a bit confusing. For instance on normal IDE that I was originally taught was to have

Main Class Variables and Attributes Conditional statement etc.

WorkSpace setup: Is not in that particular order and not to mention the import.console.. it just throw someone off from learning the original way of doing things then come here to see something totally different in syntax.
