So I decided to write a real primer for real programmers. One that consists of techniques and tips that are uniformly workable to any computer language on any platform. There is a lot of rubbish and false data promoted under the guise of “the right way to do it”. If there ever was a programming mistake that could have been made, or a bug introduced where it could have been avoided, then I have surely done it. They say that experience is what you get, right after you needed it.  That makes me a very experienced programmer.
So I feel I have a responsibility to write it all down for all the newbies and not so newbies in the field so that my hard won experience is not wasted. If anything I write down can save someone else just an hour of their time, then it will be worth it.  If you can learn from someone else’s mistakes then you should be able to get a doctorate on mine!

I will keep you posted of the progress on this and other things that I am working on during my waking hours.
