GrandMLee: Hi! i''m sorry i haven''t tried it, do you want me to try it?

anyway, thanks guys for all your replies although it''s not all related to my topic, but still if possible i still want more opinions coz i think there''s only around 2 ere that really post about their opinion and one here that gave a good programming advice, thanks )

Learning to program in general is a difficult process. It''s not enough to just learn a language and call yourself a programmer. Learning a language is just the first step in the process, after that the next step would be to learn ADT''s (Advanced Data Types). The most common ADT''s are Linked lists, stacks, queues, and hash tables. From there you can move onto algorithms. After that there are plenty of things you can learn, from API''s to encryption, to file formats, to compression...the list goes on and on.

Somewhere along the line you''ll develop the experience and knowledge nessassary to think out your programming problems properly rather than hacking things together until it works correctly.

It takes time, and a lot of programming in order to develop the skills nessassary to become a game programmer. The only way to get anywhere is to keep at it, and buy/read as many books on the subject as you can.

hey evaclear, you gave me a direction thanks!

and uh i thought ADT means Abstract Data Types or is it just the same coz i think Abstract Data Type has a different meaning.
