We were having a discussion on this topic today at the school where I work. Some of the students want to start to learn some programming: we have staff willing to learn and want to know what language to use. As we have a system where most of our PCs will boot into Linux or windows I suggested using a C on Linux, however the question which arose was what help/ teach youself/getting started is there. I'm not a progammer myself and have no experience of using C but said I'd post on this list for any advice you could give. I'm trying to increase the use of Linux here and demonstrate its advantages so please, any help would be great. Thanks James Wonnacott Callington Community College.

Does the uni have any CD's for borrowing that are Linux. I know SoC students can get their hands on Microsoft stuff through a kind-of educational partnership. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
