Isn't that for those that aren't given real apprenticeship?:)
Programming is my hobby,
are all sorts of scenarios in the above for one to analyze and create
code to simulate, etc.
Enough of my blathering. Basicallyfind something, a problem, an imaginary
idea like a game, and then figure out how to apply programming solutions to
that problem.

For me, the quickest way to jump into a programming language was seeing
a current open source project and say "I wish it did this too, or that
instead ..." and implement it myself. Not only do you learn about the
project itself, and pick up some tips and tricks along the way, you then
also have
itors or terrorists...or
even environmentalists.
...anyway, you get the idea. Perhaps a lame idea in the context of today's 3D
graphical games, but if properly implemented...maybe it would be fun.

don't need a person walking me through it, a simple, "build a

a user to give you a name and create permutations of it" is great.
Of course
that example is elementary, but that is the gist of the responses
I'm looking
for.
So have you done it yet?
