Re: How did you learn to program?

Now, im not exactly a programming wizard (as Karthik1 will attest), but i can write a program that will control a robot simply, and write an auto mode that will get by.

The best way to learn is to immerse yourself in it. Just like learning anything else. So, i say just start doing it, and when you know what you want the logic to do and dont know how to convey that into C, read a book or check the internet. That way you learn the important functions and capabilities of C through their application in a real world situation instead of just words on a page

I started programming because nobody else on my team knew very much about it, and it seemed interesting. I knew nothing at all and struggled with a short amount of time before ship to test my program, but we did well and the code worked like a charm (we didnt use auto mode too extensively).

I say go with Nike on this one. Just Do It. :-D
