Useful Resources

There are many resources available online to help you get started with programming. Using search engines like Google lets you specify the topic you are seeking information on.

Some of the most useful ways to get an understanding of how things work is to find tutorials on specific subjects and work your way through them to see the code you are writing in action.

The sites below specialise in tutorials:

• W3 Schools - W3 schools is a very broad spectrum site. Everything you need to get started is here! They provide visual examples along with their coding so you know what the end result should look like.
• HTML Dog - Specialises in HTML and CSS information.
• JavaScript-Coder.com - Specialises in JavaScript tutorials and articles.
• ProgrammingTutorials.com - This site that covers a multitude of programming languages.

Another helpful tool to assist with programming is using cheat sheets. They list specific tags and associated properties, selectors and syntax associated with the specified programming language. Printing off cheat sheets provides a great hardcopy reference.

That concludes our introduction to programming, I hope you've found it useful. Happy coding! :-)
