Basically, I'm still a fledgling coder myself.<br /><br />I like your comment about needing to read lots of code to understand how to build things. I imagine the next thought most teachers would have is "how do you keep them from cheating?" And I've seen posts online from CS teachers that refer to how to maintain academic integrity. But I agree, you have to look at code! What do I do when I get stuck - I go searching for examples to learn from! You can't visualize solutions to the unknown out of thin air, at least not very often.<br /><br />Thanks for your blog, BTW. It is one I follow closely!Jeff Yearouthttp://mryearout.comnoreply@blogger.com
