RE: Learning to code on the cheap

["Smith, Martin" <Martin -dot- Smith -at- mdx -dot- com>]

Karen,

Excellent advice from Susan Gallagher, to which I would add to visit Sun's
web site. There you can download development tools for writing Java programs
for free, as opposed to going out and spending hundreds on Visual Studio.

At Sun's web site you will also find a wealth of information about
programming in Java. 

Starting with an object-oriented design fundamentals class will save you
much frustration, however. Object-oriented programming is a discipline best
approached conceptually before you get bogged down in the syntax of writing
code.

Good luck,

Martin R. Smith
