Could You Explain Programming Please

Him: Hey, you’re good with computers right?

Me: Yes.

Him: And you know how to program computers?

Me: Yes, that’s my job actually.

Him: Could you explain programming please?

Me: I’m sorry, what do you mean?

Him: I want to make a game like Halo, but I don’t know how to start. Could you explain what I need to do?

Me: You should probably go to the library and get a book.

Him: Can you just tell me what I need to do?

Me: Wait a minute. Are you asking me to explain how to program computers?

Him: Yeah.

Me: Over the phone?

Him: Yeah.
