[QUOTE=Bleek][url="http://www.cplusplus.com/"]www.cplusplus.com[/url] but nothing is better than a book. SAMS teach yourself c++ in 24 hours is awesome. but go through the lessons really slow. also, nothing compares to a class when learning a language... staring at code wont help you because even if you know a command like "cout" you …

Everyone knows that usually every Perl program should start with something along the lines of "#!/usr/bin/perl" ... what's often called as "shebang." Anyone know why?

Been a while since I've heard anyone uttered the words "SafePerl." :) What it boils down to is it's a restricted version of the Perl language where your scripts can't screw up the system is running on. Lots of things are limited. It's used in schools. If you're going to …

Saving a Word document as a web page is a no-no. It adds so much unnecessary HTML and other bloat that makes it unmanageable. I recommend you recreate the page from scratch by hand or use Dreamweaver or even FrontPage. The HTML code that Word generates is a train wreck …

In your while loop, you're telling it to loop five times and keeping track with variable count. Once you first enter the while loop, you're immediately incrementing it with the stament count++. Even if you're using this with a cout as output, it still increments it. What does this mean? …

Nice 3D artwork. I used to do some work in 3D, mostly in trueSpace 2, to enhance my drawings. I sort of lost interest in 3D though. The only thing I'm doing nowadays is regular pencil drawings, which I've always been a fan of. I love pencils. ^_^ Here's an …

IFRAMEs are still used in several CMS related web apps. When dealing with a lot of data, it's wise to use them rather than scrolling through 1000 records of information. The reason why they are used is so you have menus and other tools visible to the user, otherwise, as …
