  • Learned how to download the solution code for this book from its GitHub repository.
  • Learned how to find help. This could be in the traditional way, by using help command switches, documentation, and articles, or the modern way, by having a conversation with a coding expert AI, or using an AI-based tool to perform “grunt work.”

In the next chapter, you will learn how to “speak” C#.
