I am new to programming.How much truth is there in the statement"90% of code consists of for,while,if loops"?Even though the page states it is a made up statistic?

I write if while for all the time. So there is much truth in terms of actual code. The other times you are just calling other methods

sites like learnstreet,codeschool,codcademy can they really teach you enough programming to solve huge problems?most of them seem to be just teaching syntax and a few problems to solve seem to be given.
