Programming

It's possible to make a mobile app without writing any code yourself, it's also possible to build an app within an hour. But do you really think that throwing an App together in the shortest possible time with the minimum of effort is going to pay dividends and make lots of money, do you think this "drive-through" app creation process is going to wow your customers and have them reaching for their wallets? Of course not, this fast-track approach is OK to get you familiar with the development concept, but as far as getting you on the path to commercial success with your apps, it's not really going to cut it. Customers expectations have become increasingly more demanding, and building an App that takes advantage of all the features of todays modern devices does require a little bit of work, it requires some planning, some coding and a little bit of thought, that's the bad news, the good news is this little bit of effort equals a whole lot of profit. Take our own InfiniteSkills app, it generates hundreds of sales per day every day, it took a little effort to build, but it makes a whole lot of profit and there is no reason why you can't also create an app like this.

This VTC MySQL 5 Administration Part 1 course is the first of a two-part series on the basics of administering a MySQL Server. This is a continuation of the introduction to MySQL 5 we began with the MySQL 5 Development Parts 1 and 2 courses and it assumes that the student has the equivalent knowledge covered in those courses. This first Administration course lays the groundwork for an understanding of basic internal systems of the MySQL server. The focus in Part 1 is to gain familiarity with these systems and various alternatives we have, from the different administrative tools that are available to the different options and sources for MySQL server software and services. While Part 1 has limited hands-on sections, we do offer a lot of detail and a number of exercises on user accounts and security, accessing information about some key internal systems, and some important operations for performing table maintenance. After learning this academic information about the Server, Part 2 will follow this with many practical administrative operations and systems critical to your successful use of the MySQL Server.

This MySQL 5 Development Part 2 course continues the introduction to MySQL we began with Part 1. But in Part 2, we now begin working with commands that are used to change the contents of the tables in our database. We also explore various ways of building more complex queries, including command options that allow us to address more than one table in a single command. While this is still an introductory course, we are now exploring tools that let us handle more complex operations and build more sophistication into our MySQL database systems. The topics we cover in Part 2 include inserting/updating/deleting data, subqueries, joins, transactions, table and row locking, stored procedures and functions, triggers and events, indexes, and more. We have tried to keep the examples in the lessons as simple as possible to illustrate them most effectively, but the further study exercises are more realistic as to how these tools are used in practice.

If you want to produce iOS applications there's no way around it-- You need to learn Objective C. Based on the C programming language, Objective C is a cool derivative of C that adds many functions and features.  In our Objective C course, you'll learn everything you need to know about the Objective C programming language to competently start learning the iOS libraries and development. If you tried to learn iOS Development but found it too difficult to understand, this is the course you need.  If you have NEVER programmed before, take our "Learn C Programming: iOS Development Starts Here!" course first and then join this course and learn Objective C.
