Someone should make the ultimate tutorial
Showing how to use Types/Methodes/Functions, demonstrating why you should use them and how to use them efficently with small examples. That way your every day beginner can understand how to use them and why use them.
I think that would help alot in the end because then when the beginners ask questions and you answer them then they would probably have a bigger chance of understanding what your saying.
As for myself, I'm ulterly a visual type of person, so if I can picture it then I'll understand, so alot of small simple examples with clear explications, it'd be heaven! :)
But Blitz Max's documentation does not give examples like Blitz Plus's documentation and the documentation's not too clear. No offense intended for the one who wrote it though.
If I had the skills I'd write "The beginners' guide to Blitz Max" because I know how hard understanding some of BMax's aspect for someone who doesn't know that much about programming.
Blitz Max has soo much potential to be exploited by even those who have never programmed before, because it's a very clean language compared to the bigger ones like C++ or ASM. I love programming with Blitz, it's fun although I'm never quite sure of what I'm doing or the result I'll get.
