Yea but the truth is a huge of audience of people who are not super familiar with the syntax of a languague will read tutorials describing how to build stuff in that language hoping they can piece things together. So for them it would be helpful.
Also, isn't all of programming just playing with types in a way? I feel like Intro to types never stops lol.
- smolder 2y agoOh, sorry that wasn't clear. I meant that type of class, as in, a class similar to "intro to programming", not a class about types in the programming sense. And by "class", I mean classes in the school sense, haha. You're right though.
