This list will provide you with more than enough practice material for small things. Just read the query first and not the answer and then 'solve the problem'. Granted most things deal with parsing text but even these offer a chance for practice (practice, practice) with IO, using subroutines, error-checking, etc. And half the time, the hardest part is "compiling the question" (if you will), i.e. understanding the problem and its nuances.

Parsing URL Best thing is these queries will generate interesting ideas of things you could do for yourself. -- Kevin Pfeiffer International University Bremen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
