If you don't understand any of the code, either find some new friends, or give up the idea of programming. As one of my professors said, once you managed to learn one language and the concepts, you shouldn'd have trouble to learn any language in two weeks. Actually I learned the basics of Perl in one weekend, any I actually can write ugly Perl code ;-) Ulrich BrianMetc@aol.com (Brian Metc) writes: > I would like to get into the programing field.
