Learning as a newbie
Jul 14th, 2006, 5:08pm  
hello all... i'm new to processing.

i'm sure this question has been asked a lot, but can't find it anywhere in the forum:
is there any way to learn to work with processing besides resolving the syntaxis/functions/etc from the examples?
isn't there any guide, tutorial, little book, or a more step to step, from base up way?

documentation is the usual missing stone in open source development.

thanks for the help in advance, and by the way, processing looks awesome... can't wait to learn and know how to benefit from it's potential.

thanks musgo!

the hand outs of the course have been really helpful =) good explanations and ordered references to the processing examples.

to any newbies who read this and try to learn from this course... change void loop() for void draw(). i guess it was the syntax in older versions.
