Hej there,
@Alan @Joel:
I didn't know that pouring corn on newbies is the purpose of a tutor
mailing list.
Why don't you try writing a program instead? Why don't you use the cat
interpreter instead?
I tried my best and that's what I came up with, and I am eager to
learn form experienced programmers - step by step at my own pace and
in my own manner. Hence, I find your responses arrogant,
self-righteous and discouraging.
I do not understand why you don't consider what I wrote not a program
("Hello World!" in a more elaborate form), as the user is actually
able to a list, to write to and reads from it (in a very primitive
manner though). Can anyone explain? However, I find that hint to
learn to use SQLite - thank you for that.
All the best,
Rafael
