one quick thing I noticed since you stressed for the beginners to type thing EXACTLY as you did, in a few places you missed the spaces in the mysql login command. example: mysql -uroot -ppassword or  are spaces not required there? never tried without spaces.

 Ya, just like joligario replied, you can login to mysql without using a space between -u and root, so its typed -uroot (just like that)
And the same for your password   -ppassword.
So if your user name was root and password was fufu, you would type:
mysql -uroot -pfufu
