Loops and arrays go hand and hand, so it's hard to understand the one without the other. How about a 1.5 hour question & answer session using Skypecast,roughly 2 weeks from now, where the first .5 hour is used to get everyone connected and test the useability of the Skypecast format. Ideally, there will be a couple of teachers using a microphone, and we'll pass the microphone to anyone wanting to ask questions. Not sure what we'll use as a whiteboard, but I may fire up a simple chat server for us to all log into and use. You'll need a microphone, or better yet, a headset, to ask questions, so jump on newegg.com and pick one up for $10. Of course we'll take questions from the chat room as well, it just won't be as cool
And hey, anyone is welcome to monitor the class, and I'll attempt to have it recorded, but no promises for this first session.
We won't be delving too deeply into arrays, as that could quickly exceed the scope of a beginner's class, but it should be a good class to build upon... and there's a ton of useful things you can do once you have a basic understanding of these two concepts. In fact, I'll be laying out the code for an adjacent photon script to aid in understanding the use of loops and arrays, so all attendees will now be able to post their own personalized photon scripts on Grimy
It seems like the last attempt by Parrot was met with scheduling confilicts and was ultimately rescheduled and poorly attended. To avoid this, I'm stating up front that I don't want to hear about your schedule or availability, and that the date and time will be based on the availability of the teachers. If it doesn't meet with your schedule, catch the recording or a subsequent class.
SOUND OFF if you are interested in attending.
