Hi thereBe careful what you wish for...
My name is Ben Iti and I just wanted to post a question to the delphi developers in the wellington region.
I would like to pay a developer to get me up to speed in Delphi. I would say im a student as I when I get time, I try to learn delphi.
Coded in assembly language on the amiga 500, then built midi applications, now moving into the databases and web.
I do not have a job as a delphi developer and am currently a data key operator but would love to be a programmer. I have sat my first year computer science papers at massey university and passed all papers.
Is there anyone interested in helping me out? Gotta go back to work, please reply.
Whats the rush? ISTM that you are doing about as much as you can. If you are interested enough to learn some stuff with your meggy - and off your own bat, you've got what you need to get through varsity, and thats about the *simplest* path (for various meanings of simple). At the moment it looks like you mightn't walk straight into a job, but everyone likes a good keen man, so don't worry too much there.
And it's probably not going too far too say that really, it'd be better for you to learn your programming at varsity* : its a reasonable application of: first make it work, then make it fast. (Also, you'll get exposed to a few different languages, and a few different philosophies - eg in a zen kinda way, programming without variables'll give you a better appreciation of programming with them. )
*Aside : seems to me that code that'd get you flamed into oblivion here is approximately the industry standard. I shit you not : I've seen goto's in the wild... ever tried to debug that kinda stuff - I used to think horror movies were scary.
Cheers, Kurt.
Ben Iti
