My name is John, I had been to a few different forums but the people here seem very friendly and passionate about coding. There's not much to say about myself, but I live alone, and am in school with a few business/telecommunications courses that got me interested in programming.

Hey CodeCall! [noparse]:)[/noparse]!

Hey there John! I'm glad you have chosen CC as your home ;) So what language do you think your interested in?

[FireGator]

Thanks guys alot!

In my telecommunications classes there were some testing applications on some old SPARC computers that were in C, they were quite interesting, I looked into the files which handled the modem communication and whatnot and got interested from then on.

I'll be working with Python for the time being, to get used to algorithms and whatnot [noparse]:)[/noparse]

Thanks, I was looking into doing some web programming as well, do you think PHP is a good option? It looks quite easy. :)

I installed XAMPP alright! Time to learn PHP. what's a way to display the user's IP? I want to work on a log. :)

It's quite simple, the $_SERVER superglobal has server variables like their user agent, IP and request. You can get it like this:

$ipaddr = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']

Hi all I am also new here. My name is Jenny and I am an intermediate C++ programmer and a newbie to python programming. Hope I will enjoy my stay here. Currently I am making a research paper about difference between C++ and Python. I have read a wide range of custom essays and other related articles on the internet about these two programming languages.

Nice to have you Jenny ;) Like you I also use C++ (not python though). It's a really great language, and it can be used with python... if I am correct. Anyhow bet you'll find these forums a great place to learn and share your knowledge!
