What have you taught yourself?

Jotun · 6 Mar 2007 at 17:34

At home: PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS
At work: MATLAB, C, Assembler, Visual Basic

I don't know *all* the ins and outs of all of the above, but I achieved all the objectives I've set out to do so far using the above. Also the one's I taught myself at work was in working hours, so I got paid for it too

They've came in useful at uni where I've been taught C and MATLAB so far

Just through playing with it mate, what are you having trouble with?

Mr_L · 6 Mar 2007 at 19:34

HTML, CSS, PHP, MySQL, XML, Photoshop and Fireworks.

PHP and MySQL could be stronger and I only learnt a bit of basic XML for an exam at uni.

Structural/programming stuff like (X)HTML, XML, CSS, JavaScript (mainly just DOM utilisation, though I can write AJAX apps when necessary), PHP (5 explicitly; OOP preference. Good idea of security, libraries [GD, PDO, SimpleXML, DOM etc.] and external APIs), miscellaneous technologies like the DOM, XPath, a small delve into XSLT, regex, SQL-92 (MySQL/SQLite development, though I need to expand my knowledge here), RSS/Atom, a fair bit of the HTTP 1.1 spec - so mainly web programming & development.

A fair amount of Python knowledge though I've not really a need for desktop programming, however I'm looking into C++ now I've got a firm OOP design grasp and can understand a lot more code than previously.

Graphics software such as Photoshop, basic stuff in Illustrator - though not much into design any more.

Absolutely everything I know. PHP, HTML, CSS, C#, SQL...

Never read books, usually just RTFM or blunder through with trial and error. Has worked so far.

Currently jerry-rigging some CSS on a site

WotDa · 7 Mar 2007 at 17:29

Photoshop, HTML.

Now moved onto PHP, MySQL and CSS. I take the type random code, upload, test route. I couldn't learn something like this from books, so its web tutorials or nothing.

Oh, and also did a bit of LUA for WoW mods back in the day, never publicly released my stuff, although at the time I expect they would have been liked.
