Programming help needed

Post by spideyspiderman2000 »

Aight. I got Blitz a few weeks ago (finally). I didn't understand it. I searched all over the web, printed out tuorial after tutorial, and still couldn't find out how to work with Blitz. I must've used every programming book I could find, still no help. I got rid of Blitz and managed to get the money back, but I'm sure that my dad will never let me get it again. Any info on books or tuorials that a blind retard could understand?

Ummmm.... how do you return Blitz..... when it's copyable software? Did they really let you do that? I thought they sent Blitz via interweb, not CD.

Uhhh... I don't really know. My very first "graphical program" was with Blitz, but I never got into it. There was a small period where I thought I failed at life. I hated Blitz and everything about it.

But then I was happy. I learned C/++ while everybody was still into Blitz. As crazy as this sounds, my first C++ program was for the Sega Dreamcast...

Now that means something. :worship:

I'd recommend starting with a website like I did. It's easy to progress from straight HTML to Javascript/Perl to Blitz or something to C and C++.

That's the path I took.
