    More important than learning "functions" is to learn how to think - how to analyse a problem, and design solutions.

    Hence the suggestion to think about how a mechanical clock works: it has a pendulum (or whatever) which "ticks" once per second (or whatever) - and uses that to time a second hand rotating once per minute (60 seconds), a minute hand rotating once per hour (60 minutes), etc.

    Now compare that to what Mr Pier wrote about timers...
