SMS Collect ver1

Well, in an attempt to relearn stuff I made a program in VB.NET. Yeah, yeah, Windows only, .NET Framework 1.0 required, I know. I don’t know how to make things the way I’d like to in C++, so this is my only outlet to make something like this.

Anyway, it’s a program to help you keep track of Sega Master System games. It’s pretty basic, but kinda nice I suppose. Here are a couple of screenshots for you to ooh and aah at, or at least get a look at it if you don’t have what’s necessary to run the prog:

That’s about it. Check README.txt included in the archive for usage.

Have fun!

A Slight In(doctrination)troduction

Hello World! I love those words, and at the same time, I loathe them. Why is that?

In the programming world, “Hello World” is usually the name of the first program you make in a given language that you’re starting to learn. For those that aren’t familiar, here’s a quick run down. You learn some basic coding for said new language, and implement a program to spit out two lovely words — Hello, and World. For the most part, this just lets you know that you’re on the right track. Nothing fancy or anything. When it’s a new language that you’re learning, and this happens, it’s pretty exciting! How I love those words!

Now let’s say you’ve gone to a year of community college where you started to learn how to program. You had to drop out after that year for one reason or another. Okay, fine, but you learned how to study for programming at least. Nice! Now you have the ability to pick up just about any programming language and apply yourself to it!

Okay, I was just talking about myself there obviously. If you couldn’t tell… damn. ANYWAY, here’s where the loathing of “Hello World” comes in. I’m pretty darned lazy when it comes to programming. Well, I’m not sure if I’m actually lazy, or if I have problems understanding the more advanced stuff. I can always get the basics down it seems, but then my brain just won’t soak in things, and it gets SO aggravating haha Now that I think about it, I must just be lazy. I know how to study for this!

I’ve dabbled in a few different languages now; C++, VB.NET, PHP, and most recently 6502 assembly. I haven’t excelled in any per se, but I’ve been able to do some minor things and be proud of them. This is why I love and hate the words, “Hello World.”

My name is Rob Bryant. Hi!
