Delphi/Pascal Tutorials?

[ThomasGrant]

Hi there.
You may have seen my latest post about Beta Testers.
link:://rouletteforum.cc/coding-for-roulette/beta-testers-needed/

For those that are inclined.
I could start a tutorial series on Coding with Delphi.
For those that have Delphi 7 or 10.
Or for those that wish to have Delphi 7.
I can give you instructions on how to get it.
Just pm me.
Only serious people who wish to learn how to code should send me a pm on Delphi.
That is if you don't have Delphi 7.
Add your name below.
And send me a pm.

Then, if I get enough members/students.
I will start my tutorial series.
Just basically all that I have learnt so far.

You can follow along.
If you wish.
Buy the end.
You should have a good understanding of how to code.
How to create your very own programs.
How to create your very own bot. Well sort of.
It wont be automatic until I can figure out how to do it.
Victor has given me some links.
And many ideas.

Thanks again Victor.

Thank you very much for any programming education you can share with the fellows from the forum.

Very appreciated.

P.S. maybe you can consider also making something for "FREE PASCAL" ( link:://:.freepascal.org/ ). This compiler is not propietary, which can incentivate users. everyone loves a freebie!

A full IDE can be found here: link:://:.bloodshed.net/devpascal.html

Thanks Victor for those links.
Still waiting to see if there is any interest in me teaching what I have learnt so far.
I need names of members.
I also need to know if they have Delphi.
Or if they want to have Delphi.

Count with me Tomas !
I would be very thankful if you could help me

But you have not answerd my questions.
Do you have Delphi?
If not send me a pm.
And I will let you know how to get it.

Hello dear Thomas, since you starting your teaching Journey with propietary program Delphi, perhaps this is precisely the moment to think more seriously on the free alternative (at least give it a try and see how large is the gap -and if it is unsurmountable).

Yes, everybody knows there are pirated copies of programming environments, but there is also the option to use an open version legally and offer it at no cost (financial or moral)  to members via free compilers, so why not?

It is a better practice and helps the programming ecosystem!

Food for thought as the journey starts.

Ok, let me take a look.

[ThomasGrant]

Hmmm, err perhaps not.
I tried it.
And it has no GUI.
I mean it is just pascal.
Well, it has a gui.
But what I mean is that you cant see the forms or the bot.
Only the code.

[ThomasGrant]

Ok, Victor.
And everyone else.

I may have found two alternatives.

When I went to the download page of this one.
I started to download.
Then my Kaspersky picked up a trojan in the program.
So I am not sure if it is any good or not.
I may turn of my security.

This site.
I could not find the download link.

Sorry my ignorance but is Delphi good for making bots and stuff like that?

I was about to learn visual basic, but maybe Delphi is better..
what you guys think?

And no Thomas, I don't have Delphi yet

Ok, Did you read my first post?
Please do as it says.

If not.
And you want to learn Visual Basic.
Then go ahead.

Victor knows a great deal about basic.

This post is for SERIOUS PEOPLE who wish to learn Delphi/Pascal.
Only people who have read the post.
Replied with interest.
And have SENT me a PM.

Will be considered.

I will only start the tutorial series if I have at least 3 or more members that are interested.
If not. Then I will continue coding.
And this post will disappear.

I'd suggest some of you guys take on the teaching offer by Thomas since programming is primarily about CONCEPTS and THINKING and then about SYNTAX.

If you learn programming concepts, regardless of it being in PASCAL or BASIC or C++/Python, etc., then you'll be able to learn programming thinking and get used to the way of structuring your code to bring a solution.

As far as I understand Delphi is a very robust language for windows programming; roulette bots, trackers and testers included

It's ok mate. More likely the best path is for you to continue coding, while giving the thread some days to get the message to the gross of interested visitors.

I read your full post my friend

I never post anything before read the whole thread.
I was just asking that because every programming language can make a bot, but there are ones better than others.. As I don't know much about Delphi I just wanted to know what is it more specific at.

For example you can use Matlab to code a bot, for Visual ballistics it would be better than VB, but for mechanical system VB is way better
Just an example through

Hope you haven't interpret me wrong Thomas.
I'm a serious guy and I'm very interested in you offer, as I had exposed before my wish to be able to code =)

I see your point Victor, I think this will be a great experience for me

As I said before, count with me Thomas !!
