Should we memorize the code in the tasks as form of learning it. Through repitition? or should we just move on?

I don't know that it is necessary to memorize the code in the task verbatim; that being said, as you code and get more familiar with Java, there are certain fundamental patterns to the code and details you will begin to memorize. Some examples:
- Every Object needs a constructor and can have member variables with different access modifiers (public, private, etc)
- Java's primitive datatypes: int, double, boolean, etc. and how to use and create them
- Concatenating two Strings
... The list will get longer the more and more familiar you get with Java. Just make sure you are understanding what you are coding and have fun coding more and more things. With practice, you will slowly memorize these details.

When you get further, you have to do all of these codes again so it good to do them at here.... And when you get further the code's will be much difficulter and you have to practise for that now. So just keep going and you'll get a good coder :-).
