In addition, I want to mention that you don't have to be smart to be
good at programming, you merely have to be persistent. If something
don't work, go to another place and try something else. There's
zillions of tutorials online; even more code examples and programs;
even Einstein got stuck sometimes.. the secret to gaining experience
and knowledge is trying something new when you get stuck on old
things.. This isn't SAT, you're free to roam the landscape for
excitement and intellectual profit ;-).
