How about they teach/tutor this language?

Root / Programming Questions / [.]

How about these ideas: 1) Someone writes a guide/book for beginners to become much, much better at SB and sell it somewhere and make money? Or if the company creates a guide for free. A really well written guide like a Pearson publisher book. 2) People offer SB tutoring. They can then explain what each statement at SB does. See I really am terrible at learning on my own so I'll take either. I get good grades through tutoring (academically, school and all). I can pay to do this since this has value. Thoughts?

I think most of the people who program on this thing are just trying to have fun and not looking to make money. I can understand how doing research and asking questions can be a difficult way to learn but, Petit Computer was out for years and never got a good step by step beginners manual. I think if you posted a thread that was like "This is what I know, where do I go from here?", you'd find a lot of help. I owe everything I know about programming to snailfaqs function guide, gamefaqs message board, and this site.

I agree with PetitProfessor. It's better if you show what you do know when asking questions on this stuff. For example, on a lot of educational forums like Hyperphysics.com require you to show your work when asking a question. This is helpful for people to gauge your level of understanding when answering your questions. It's hard to explain something to someone that doesn't have enough background knowledge. Also, don't forget to be polite when asking/receiving help. There are some really knowledgeable people on this site that can help, but ya gotta remember that nobody is getting paid on here to answer questions. Don't expect an answer on a silver platter within a short time span. Good luck and I hope you find your way into the zone of proximal development. :)

Okay I have used PetitProfessor's advice and made a thread with the title of "This is what I know, how do I go higher in learning this language?" explaining what I know and asking how to take it from there.
