Normally it's the move number. For example the first move in a game is 1. and than the piece you moved (for example: 1.e4).

Thank you. Yeah I understand it now. Feel like I need to set it up on a board though I keep losing where I am
Hello Stuart. Actually, setting up the positions in a real chessboard is a Wasting time as statued from.the book authors too.
Just get pen and paper and starts to resolve the puzzle , writting down your solutions and then correct it with a red pen.
Try to resolve at least 24 easy test or 18 intermediate test for day (and correct it, the same day), every day until a entire month.
After your daily 24 or 18 test, you must correct the puzzle, the same day ( do not skip or delay the corrections.. be the inflexible teacher of yourself and get yourself a score)
Then, restart
I want to point out the importance of writting down the solutions, especially in the firsts cycles
Currently reading the woodpecker method, I fully understand the symbols and notations but the numbers are confusing me.
For example when I see the subtitle as 35.Qf7 is that the first move in the scenario? As it mentions 35 again a few times then goes 36.
Also does this mean the 35th move. Finding it really hard to understand what it’s telling me can somebody please put it into perspective for me?
