Title: Newb Zone... be careful where you step
Post by: Doc on February 18, 2006, 01:25:45 PM
I've used a lot of different programming languages over the last few years, up until now at least, never sticking with any single one long enough to get too much further past the newbie stages. I consider myself a perpetual newb! ;)

At any rate, when first trying out a language, I've come to enjoy building simple, yet highly focused examples and Aurora is no exception. As such, here's a start for anyone new out there that might prefer the same method.

The zip file contains source files covering:

FormatDate_Example.src
FormatTime_Example.src
GetStartPath_Example.src
Len_Example.src
NumToHex_Example.src
NumToStr_Example.src
StrLeft_Example.src
StrLower_Example.src
StrMid_Example.src
StrRight_Example.src
StrUpper_Example.src
ToChar_Example.src
TrimLeft_Example.src
TrimRight_Example.src

Be forewarned. If you are an experienced coder, you might want to pass because they will hardly be of value to ya for anything much more than a chuckle.

My pleasure, Mike!

I don't think I got all of the strings finished, so if someone else wants to join in the fun, just jump right in anywhere.

...one way or another, I'll be adding a bunch more as I have time to work my way through the different aspects of the language.

Thanks for sharing Doc I am a newborn with this OOP stuff always wanted to learn pick up the books get flusterd and give up.
But with these examples and the explination we have been getting from Paul it might just stick this time. ;D
