Programming help

I have no prior experience in the C# coding language or any other coding language for that matter.

So I am asking for your help e*PvP

I would like to learn the basic's of C# coding, nothing advanced just so I can start off a server and experiment(it wont be public it will just be for testing purposes).

Right now I have Hybrids basic server source. Specifically it would be great if someone with experience with that source would help me.

Thanks.

My advice would be to read through the C# tutorials posted in this thread.

And if you need more help search for hybrids video tutorials, they were basic and built upto some quite advanced stuff.

Nothing advanced? Running a server and experimenting on it is rather advanced in programming terms. Going to have to know the basics, data structures, and peer-to-peer programming. Tutorials for C# are probably your best best, along with sites like Code Guru.

you'll have a hard time understanding a server source if your new to C#, i reccomend following some tutorials at c-sharp.net first, then try to take the code function-by-function

Its a good thing your scrapping your server project for now.

Most commonly a class is used to describe an object. Which entitles stating the attributes and methods that are associated with that class.
Once this class is created in memory, via a "driver class", memory is held open to fill class attributes and perform methods described within the class.

I had no "Server Project" I was simply wondering if it would be a place to start. Also I put etc... after classes because I have no experience in C# and a class is the only thing that came to mind now I remember variables,strings,ints,floats,doubles, etc... but I will need more insight as I progress.

Google'ing "C# tutorials" shall provide that insight.

I had C# thrown at me in college. We are just expect to learn how to use it on our own to complete GUI projects.

My best way to learn is by seeing complex examples of source codes: of course, if you're always sticking to things you know you may learn nothing!

So, you could search on the internet for a few soft sources and see how the coders made them. Also, Inf has a nice source here:

It teaches a clean programming style along with socket programming.

Hope that helped!
