-Libraries are collections of code that can be reused in you programs. When you are learning to write programs to solve physics problems, it is tempting to try to "write your own", i.e. write code to implement functionality already available in one or more libraries.
+Libraries are collections of code that can be reused in you programs. When you are learning to write programs to solve physics problems, it is tempting to try to "write your own", i.e. write code to implement functionality already available in one or more libraries. You should fight this temptation and learn to use libraries early on, it will save you time, and make your code more robust.
