Using the word 'type' for executing code could be confusing

In episode 2, starting with data, at least a couple of times, the instructions for executing or running the code is 'type'. I think this could be confusing for someone who is new to programming. One particular line talks about 'typing' the code straight into the console to install packages.Does typing a code in the console run it? To avoid the confusion that might arise, I suggest using a more uniform language throughout the lesson.

Thanks @klbarnes20 for opening this issue. The lesson underwent a major update and reorganisation when #887 was merged. As the suggestion relates to content in a version of the lesson before that update took place, I will close it.
