Learning C# by example? Complete projects?
-
I learn best by doing. I can read a book or sit in a class, but it's when I have to actually sit down and type the code in that I learn best. So can anyone point me to a few websites (or projects/articles HERE) that might be geared toward this type of learning? You know, some C# project from start to finish? Maybe some dif't levels, starting at simple and working up to harder projects? I have a programming background and experience w/ Microsoft products and even some .NET. It's just hard to be motivated on this project at the moment and I think this is what I need to kickstart it. Thanks, all. P.S. My latest project is a simple .NET web interface to: allow user input to a SQL Server backend and generate some reports, so something along those lines would be IDEAL Edit: not really looking for beginner "tutorials" such as Quick C#... I have books that show syntax, and I already have a feel for the language... I need to figure out how to put it all together.

Pick something that will give you a sense of accomplishment when it's done. This will motivate you to finish it.

You abbreviated textspeak with an apostrophe instead of typing out the entire word "different". Why should we take the time to help you if you're not willing to take the time to communicate clearly?

I never rest. I knew what he meant (obviously), but I stand by my assertion that I am apathetic to his question due his lack of respect for those of us with a proper education. Oh yeah, and who the hell are you, Member 5646867? If you're not willing to use a proper user ID, you haven't earned the right to call me by my first name.

I'm just another person on the Internet who comes here for help and advice. If you don't want to answer his question, then that's fine but there was nothing constructive in what you posted. This is despite the fact that you can be a very positive contributor here and I've always had respect for your technical knowledge and experience. FWIW (you don't mind acronyms do you?), text-speak irritates me too and I don't blame you for not wishing to answer his question. However, it just seems like you enjoy being offended a little too much.
