Learning coding

A-machine-insp
Where did you all learn coding?

I have one very basic code that was mainly copied from on here but I want to do more. So where did everyone learn this? Coworkers, books, Google, YouTube, classes, guy in a van down by the river??? What reading materials/websites/videos/classes/guys in vans by rivers would you recommend? I am going to take the free (until June) "VB.Net for PC-DMIS 301" class online probably this weekend. I see what you guys are having DMIS do with coding and I see how it can greatly help here at my job so I want to learn as much as I can. I'm the kind of person that is thirsty for knowledge and can't learn enough. My boss has had conversations with the owner and myself about sending me to classes at the local community college and they are all for it but that's on hold until this virus blows over.

Any recommendations you guys have are greatly appreciated.

  • Hi,
    I think to have Coworkers who can teach coding is the best what could happen. In my case, the most helpful was this forum and PC DMIS help files (for functions). Now the important thing for me is to have a clear task of what I need to do and the second important thing was the recognition of useful possibilities of what I can do. The first idea of ​​coding was to write a script which should calculate general tolerances of dimensions depending on dimension size. By trying to get an idea how to write that script I searched info in this forum and in the same time I found other useful possibilities what I can do. First of those possibilities was a script for export data to excel, I found a script which working and have potency. Then I played and played and played on a script for export to excel, to get the best of what I could imagine, for info I always returned to this forum. To idea about script calculating general tolerances I returned maybe after 6 months and after few finished other scripts. I am sure, in this case learning for learning not the best thing to do.
