When I write my programs I always feel that certainly I am attacking the problem in the least-elegant, least-extendable, least-reusable, most-brute-force way possible. It's easy to find beginners manuals, but what's the best way to learn better programming techniques / structures / etc? Maybe the request is a bit off-topic, but it came up in reference to the above, and besides, there are probably people here who understand the question and can answer it! Thanks, gary
