113 Free Lessons on programing

Thanks Eric,

I just started creating some programs, so this would help me.

Julie

I know a reasonable amount of PHP programming just from picking it up over the years however I am going to go see what your programming lesson is about and thank you for quality content on the forum

Know any very good links for learning visual basic?

Something for all:

I graduated from school (computer technology) and we learned C,C++ and lots of other languages but I didn't take any lectures on C# since it was new and only a few students had the chance of signing for the lecture.

I graduated from school and I knew what OOP(Object oriented programming) was but that was it. Most of the companies that were hiring was looking for c# programmers and I was accepted right after my first job interview. As you can guess, it was C# that they were looking for. I told that I knew c# and had experienced a few projects.

When I started working, I had like 10 days of time to learn what it was all about since I literally knew "nothing". What I did was:

Googled "C# tutorial" and started reading them 1 by 1. I tried "everything" that I read. Sometimes I had to google 10 times while trying to find out a small problem with my code. I was doing very very stupid mistakes but I was better with each tutorial.

I remember the day that our boss asked our team to code a calculator in 30 minutes. This was the second day, and I was barely able to convert a string to an integer. It was horrible.

10 days later, it took me 20 minutes to do it.

What is the lesson to be learned?

If you really want to learn programming, read tutorials. Don't only read them, implement what you learn at that moment and try to use them on the next tutorial.

It's all about how much you want it.
