Using the command prompt is not coding.

Ackshually, whenever you write something into the command prompt and it works, you're writing valid Bash (or whatever shell you're using) code. Bash is a programming language, so technically you are coding.

For example, try typing the following into a terminal:

for ((i = 0; i < 10; i++)); do echo $i; done

You just counted to nine using a loop and a variable!
