Definitely not the most elegant thing I've written. But I've been feeling like doing the exact opposite of what this post says lately. It gets really frustrating to be asked regularly "It should be easy" or "Why can

I'm sure I'm not being clear enough so please let me know where I can make improvements and let me know what questions you have for part 2.

Yeah, it's definitely not for everyone. It's just the kind of thing I would like though.

I would just like to thank dalanmiller for making a pull request to my fork of octopress correcting several grammar and spelling mistakes. That was a really cool thing to do and I appreciate it.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm definitely not the best writer out there but would like to be... I REALLY should have ran this through a spell checker and felt stupid when I finally did. If you have any more detailed critiques and feel st

Yeah... I may go through at some point and refactor this post some. I personally get a kick out of funny names and goofy stuffy but several people have made the point that it can be distracting to some people. The key things are just passio

Absolutely. I kinda wish I had written more in this post about context... I had a similar frustration with math even though we did many, many more exercises... Some kind of practical real world context really helps. If you just naturally lo

Lol. After reading my own comment I think I'm terrible at my native language, too. I need to stop writing things before I've had my morning coffee.

by drumsrgr8forn8 13y ago
Yeah fair enough. I wasn't really critiquing the explanation so much as that was the end of it. They also made us hand write assignments and quizzes thinking it would somehow keep us from cheating. It's been several years now so I

That's lovely! Part of me thinks that kind of thing should have been more of the focus of my post.

I think that's a fair point. Guerrilla pretty much said what I would say... most of my production code just uses plain Jane clear names like "user" or a variable named "name_array". The bigger message is to communic

Thanks for the feed back... I really am a terrible spelling. I at least ran through a spell check and corrected those errors real quick. There's two errors where there's no space between a word where markdown is parsing it that wa

That's awesome. If I had had a similar experience I probably would have been all in much earlier in my life.

I've worked through some of it! That's exactly the kind of stuff I'm talking about. My Erlang learning has been a little spotty so far but I'm going to Erlang Camp in Nashville next month to fill in some holes. I've

This is where I meant to say YES! Absolutely! But I was on my phone and missed.

Thanks for commenting. I would definitely say clarity comes before whimsy. That was part of my frustration back in college was the complete lack of clarity. Recursion was taught in about five minutes like this: "A recursive function is
