iOS Objective-C Basics (Retired) Functional Programming in C Functions

I'm having trouble understanding this section.

I think my issue is i don't fully follow what each piece of the code does. Like which piece is a variable and which piece is defining the variable and which piece is calling on the function, and where do all these pieces go?

Maybe someone can better explain this?

Additionally, should I be overly concerned if I'm not quite grasping the C basics? or will most of it clear up as I get in to objective-C? I didn't have a program with HTML and CSS but I don't know how they compare, complexity wise, to objective-C.

I had trouble understanding in this course also, it gets better as you go on, just trek through the beginning and try to understand as much as you can, if you don't understand something you can always re-watch the video.

Thanks for the insight, I guess it just takes some time to get used to the terminology and to orient yourself with the language. I've tried re-watching some of the video but it left me with the same question. Maybe i should go back and watch the first couple videos, maybe I was distracted and missed some information.
