its called a tutorial
If you are just pasting other peoples work into the editor, when things go wrong you wont know how to solve the problems.
The tutorial should tell you what to do or it is a bad one.
Can you post the link please
type in the url, highlight it and click the link button.

In programming, nothing exists

First of all, it is good that you want to get the basics down, so you're headed in the right direction. I assume you are working on TDK's tutorial #3, but regardless, tutorials are meant for you to learn the subject that they discuss. They are not intended to be a quick fix, but for instruction.

The idea of tutorials is not that you will simply paste code into your editor, run it and see what someone else has done. The idea is that you will enter in what is needed as you absorb the content. i.e., you learn through experiencing it yourself.

I would suggest that if you are not using one of TDK's tutorials, that you switch to one of his. He is a maiven of DBC and his tutorials are the best IMO.

If you need more help, let us know.
