In this section we will talk about data types, variables, logic or code flow, functions, classes, and MonoBehaviour. There is a lot of knowledge to be held in this section of this chapter, but it is meant to be referenced. If you have a sticky note, it might be a good idea to place it in these chapters to easily be referenced. When you open the file, there will be autopopulated C# that we will not need for this part. For now, delete the extra parts so that way it looks like this:
