For example, I haven't a clue how I could use an array, what a bitwise

I wouldn't say I was a great programmer either. An array is simply a sequence of
memory variables (say 1-10) that can be accessed via their numeric position.

So why use an array with say 5 values and not 5 variables?
x++

If you write x++ in your code and x=1, once used, one will be added to it so it
equals two.

If you write ++x the one will be added before it's used. It's short hand for
x=x+1;

so it's always +1, not like my pocket calculator which will keep adding
the original value of x if I use a double +
(5++ =10, 15, 20, etc.)
#include lets you include files that other people have written, like a toolkit
of parts.

The other stuff I've never needed.
