The best way to learn is to contribute. Find the "easy hacks" page. Look at the source code. Try to write in the same style as the code you're modifying. > I want to become a great programmer. I have time. I would be thankful if > you reply and help. When you're trying to code something, easy hack or whatever, go onto the irc channel and ask for help. The thing to note there, is you MUST have tried yourself on your own first. You're more likely to get a response if you say "I've tried this, I've tried that, ..." There are also mailing lists and irc channels dedicated to helping people learn programming. Find them. And lastly, while ESR (Eric Raymond) is very much an acquired taste, he has written some very good stuff on the psychology of programming. One of them is about how to ask for help. Find it and read it. > Thanks.
