A hint for watching:

If you click on the gear icon at the bottom of the YouTube playback screen you can adjust the playback speed. That will give you some extra time to read the text before the video moves on.

Brief example of the Date, Time, and Seconds functions has been added to the list.

This is just a very simple demo and, acting on some of the feedback about how the previous ones were moving too fast, this one is a bit slower (and therefore a LOT less packed) :)

I'll be following it up with a (slightly) more interesting way to make use of the information presented shortly. Enjoy :D

Expanding on the date/time/seconds functions to demonstrate creating and using windowShapes.

Here is a very simplified look at Arrays. I tried some new things, like using the current IDE (which will probably never happen again), and displaying outline code in the messagebox (which will likely happen over and over again) :twisted:

Per every other one of these, I put chapter links in the description, but I wonder if they would not be better put into the comments section?

As always, comments are welcome either here, or on the video page :D

*Edit - I finally finished re-uploading this video. Unfortunately, YouTube does not have any method to simply replace a video, so I have corrected the link above to reflect the new location :roll:

Ahem, I see youTube did it's fine usual job of throwing me a curve ball, and moved my video upwards somehow, eliminating the first line of text in the sidebar.

I'll be re-uploading the video later (hopefully today) to fix the issue <sigh> :roll:
