I have no idea how to start or do the first assignment. The instructor should have demonstrated the assignment

He isn't like other tech courses mainly ones that focus on ai(Those just make everything confusing to make things sound more interesting but instead they just deter people from continuing it).This is the opposite he actually tries to make things understandable.
