@BenAshton24: Ya, I'm beginning to agree with you. I think I can captivate more people's attention that way. As such, I will introduce loops by creating a simple game.

@nvteigen: Great thanks, maybe there is hope.

Anyway, I did get around to making the mini-lecture I was talking about. Although, nvteighen, I think you won't like this one, as it's demonstrating how to set up C++ in ubuntu. However, you may like my next one, which will be demonstrating what classpath is, and how to run your java programs in the terminal. (I've seen too many new programmers who started with an IDE having no idea what class-path is).
