Fellow programmers,
As one of you pointed out, I've been taking 3 online courses (2 are done)
and have run into a time crunch. I started these courses in Oct04, but
between work (US Army in DC), caring for my wife (stroke in Dec03 due to
lupus complications) & daughter (4), and preparing for transfer/deployment
(my stepson,- 23, says he'll care for them during my absence). I've had
little time for anything else.
I would greatly appreciate your assistance. Granted, it isn't the proper
approach, but the time
remaining demands urgent solutions.
very respectfully,
Daniel
