compsci.ca isnt what you think it is. we are a bunch of highschool teenagers who knows pretty much nothing about programming. if you are looking for real help, I suggest you go somewhere else.

umm.... look around??? umm there is a post thing in general discussion for new users to say hello i believe its called "Hello World" well anyhow, welcome to the forum we encourage you to serach before asking and that sort of thing, it really irritates us when users expect us to spoon feed them to the tutorials and stuff like there, just a heads up there is probably some other help / info threads that are stickied you should read before you start posting. that is about all hmmm ... ya i rambled on oh well... WOO HOOO OFF TOPIC lol peace Alex |

It's... mostly accurate. Except that all the moderators are in University and know more than they should

Edit: sorry, I just read your other post. It's just that HTML is a markup language, and has little to do with programming. |

But more and more of us are growing up into university, and this site really does have a lot for users to learn from. Once you know more than Tony, Dan and wtd, then feel free go elsewhere  . |

Anyways, welcome to compsci.ca . Bugzpodder is mostly right. I am a teenager that knows nearly nothing about programming, but hence the reason i am here, and i am sure you will fit right in. |

Amen to that. If your looking to learn about C, we have an entire section dedicated to it. We also have contests like Final Projects that you can submit to to see how you stack up with others on the site. Gook Luck, Have Fun, Kick A**. |

Yay for aircraft that entered service decades before the people operating them!
I remember an Army helicopter pilot saying, "I won't fly this thing unless it's leaking hydraulic fluid. If it isn't, that's only because it's out of the stuff." |

I think zylum kinda took over as the graphics genie when Catalyst became less of a frequenter. Um, come to think of it - has anyone taken over for me as the resident elegist seeing as I'm pretty much lurker too these days? |
