NYCJUG kicks off its sixth year with our regular monthly meeting this coming Tuesday, January 12th, 2010, at the offices of BEST in Hoboken, NJ - at 33-41 Newark Street, PH; you will have to call 201 792-1002 to gain entrance to the building. See http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/NYCJUG for the meeting information and http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/NYCJUG/BESTHobokenAddressDirections for directions to the meeting.
All interested in J are welcome! If you've learning a new language, especially one as rich as J, it's valuable to talk about it face-to-face with people. Even if you already know a language well, it's often illuminating to explain things to those less knowledgeable than you. See http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/NYCJUG for details on the group and notes on past meetings. The general format of our meetings is as follows: 18:30 - 19:00 Beginner's regatta - we cover topics on basic facilities of J 19:00 - 19:30 Show-and-tell - attendees are encouraged to show recent code on which they've been working in order to show off, and to solicit advice and sympathy. 19:30 - 20:00 Advanced topics - we look at more advanced features of the language. 20:00 - 20:30 Learning and teaching J - we're distilling our own experiences to help others get a handle on J and improve our own knowledge of it. 20:30 - ? General talk, drink beer, go home, eat dinner, whatever. These broad areas are structured and ordered so that you may arrive or leave earlier or later depending on your particular interests. -- Devon McCormick, CFA ^me^ at acm. org is my preferred e-mail ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
