That's what you use BETWEEN for. Less ambiguity.

Have a template that says "START TRANSACTION" at the top; that way you can always rollback or commit your command.

So...you joined today. Welcome aboard. Enjoy, sit down, call the cat an Elephant.
I know it may not seem like it, but most of the messages in the Lounge make sense. The exceptions being anything posted by DD after about 22:00 GMT, and pretty much anything by BlueWaffle or me. Or MM after the pubs open. Or Nagy, come to think of it.
So try to avoid messages like "wat up with you" and a series of winking icons, as they will not make you any friends.

So... 90% of Lounge content?
What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

"late"?
"late"?
Sure you are? Not "pink"?
Elephant! Come with me, if you want to live.

I have created a syllabus for an "Intro to Programming" course. I am open to suggestions on how to tweak it*. You can see it here:

* If you have a "better idea" for a syllabus, simply create a "fork" of that and provide the link.

Isn't this more of an "intro to being a programmer"?
|

I hope you've included a section on how to do your own research and use search engines to increase your knowledge.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, that's in the "Google Is Your Friend" section.
|
|
|
|
|
Did you also include the section that teaches people how to always ask for "example code" when posting a question on Code Project?
The difficult we do right away...

Beginning itself is wrong. Who says everyone should learn to code?
|
|
|
|
|
You must not have read it, because it doesn't say that. The title itself ("Can Just Anybody/Should Everybody Learn to Code?") should make that clear.

I did. To me, it seems like an programming obsessed person shouting something.
Your statement: "you doubtless agree that at least many people should learn to code."
My response: no.
Your statement: "My opinion is that even people who have no desire to program for a living should learn the basics, just so that they understand the world around them better and expand their mental horizons"
My response: That is your opinion. No one cares. And who told you programming can lead to expansion of mental horizon?
Don't loose this one: " I have created an outline, or syllabus, for a programming course targeting those without any previous experience in or specific knowledge of programming. I have in mind a one-year course, presented to either grade school or high school students, but this course could actually be adapted for people in general, not necessarily just those in school."
Not true at all. Your "syllabus" is ridiculous. It tells about real World aspects after you have learnt technical aspect. Also, there are so many technologies in this World that one just cannot come up with Unified theory(yes, pun intended).
I do not disagree with few things there but I certainly do not agree to it in its entirety.
