Thanks, and thanks for the cheering too
However, I think I need to get my hands on some sort of "programmer's dictionary for dummies" and some understanding of how a program (any program) is structured, from the very basic level of programming.
I come across words like "register", "class", "library", "pointer" and that sort of things, but I have no idea what they all mean. Reading is for me extremly time consuming so I have to look for books with lots of pictures in them or, better still, sites that will explain all this without filling the monitor with text. PS: I'm not dyslectic

it's just that I find it difficult to read large blocks of text.
I remember from primary school one teacher showed us these logical diagrams with triangles and all sorts of shapes, that would explain how a program would work. But I can't for the life of me remember what it was called. Seeing and learning to use that diagram would perhaps be a start.
