  1. Install a linux distro. If you don't know which one then you can't go wrong with Linux Mint Cinnamon. Instructions available at linuxmint-installation-guide.readthedocs.io. If you get stuck, do some research into your issue via a web search engine. Using a Linux distro for your everyday tasks builds a crucial foundation in problem solving and systems thinking, which is integral to many fields of engineering (and life in general), including coding. Every component of Linux is perfectly logical and planned out, so interacting with this highly ordered system conduces your brain to similar functional thinking. The best way to learn problem solving in Linux is to experiment with Linux, try new things, and don't be afraid to break things becasue you'll learn the most when fixing things you broke.
