The problem is, we don't have double the amount of lessons so it is...

Can I use it for anything except maths? Can you list some examples with links to the full code? I know that the name of the language is very subjective, but I want to...

Hi there, I regrettably haven't studied maths since I was 16 (GCSE level), I'm now a 27 year old c# developer. Would it be a fruitless exercise trying to work through this book? What kind of maths standard is expected of the reader?
Thanks in advance ...

The book talks about of math in general too.
If there was any difficult math, i think you can skip i think general understanding of math is good enough to understand the book.
To deal with that sooner or later in programming.

I am trying to set a variable based on some maths logic (to wrap specific html around elements).
I worked half the problem, to hit 0, 3, 6, 9, 12
if(($i % 3) == 0) { // blah }
Now I need to hit the following numbers, 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, etc
What possible...

If((($i-2) % 3) == 0) { // blah }
Along with Tor... .
So just check for when 1 remains and 2 remains .
If($i % 3 == 1) if($i % 3 == 2)
Modulo returns the remainder, so when you match the 0, you get the 3rd, 6th, 9th, etc, because 0 is left in the division .
