ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Linear code sequence and jump

Okay, let me explain to you what is a linear code sequence and jump. Imagine you are playing a game with your friends. You have to go through different levels in the game to win. Now, think of the different levels as code sequences or a set of instructions that you have to follow to move forward in the game.

But, sometimes you might get stuck in one level and not be able to move forward. This is where jump comes in. Jumping means that you get to skip some levels and go to the next one directly. So, if you are stuck in level 3, you can jump to level 5 without completing level 4.

Now, linear code sequence means that the code sequence or instructions that you have to follow are arranged in a straight line or in order. It's like when you have to follow a recipe to bake a cake. You have to follow the instructions in the order they are given, otherwise, the cake won't turn out right.

Similarly, in linear code sequence, you have to follow the instructions in order to get to the next level or to complete a task. You cannot skip any steps or go out of order.

So, linear code sequence and jump are like a game where you follow instructions in order to move forward, but if you get stuck, you can jump ahead to the next level without completing the current level.
