I am an EXTREME beginner and have just began programming. My uncle owns a software development company. I have been working there as an office assistant and have been moved up to Quality Assurance. He has started to teach me programming and have made my first REAL application not out of a book on my own (well with all the help I have gotten here on stack overflow). I appreciate all the help I have received and I hope soon I can contribute to others needs and be more involved then just finding answers for myself.
