I'm a beginner programmer (a wanna be
programmer).
I'd like to find a few other beginners to form
a group. Work on a project togather, would all
learn more and faster that way.
I don't have any project in mind, let the group
decide.
I lean toward Blitz or AmiBlitz. I think its
probably the most advanced since its still
supported but can be flexable on which language.
Anyone else interested??
I am very interested in learning C programming (I have made some brief tries a couple of times, but stalled). I already know Basic!
Your thought of forming a "beginners group" is a good idea! :-) Perhaps someone with experience could volunteer as a mentor for such a sorry bunch? ;-) That would be great!
I agree with MagicSN that one should start in small scale, with the easy ways. The focus should (at least in the beginning) be on C programming techniques, compiler usage, and such, rather than advanced OS features and functions. Therefore, the "learning projects" should IMHO be quite simple, bare bone, nothing fancy, and in an "
Open Amiga spirit". By that I mean a focus on the AmigaOS 3.1 API, which at least in theory should make it possible to use all 4 flavours of the platform (at least in theory); the Amiga, the A1/OS4, the Pegasos/MorphOS and AROS. Right?
Anyone else interested in a C beginners group? Any volunteer mentors? :-)
