Hot Courses

For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))

Hot Courses - Perl

It feels like a heatwave! Or rather "summer has come to the UK".

We were doing some sums on today's private course in East Anglia, which is running at the customer's office with some 16 delegates (far more than on our public courses, where the limit is 8) so that made 17 of us in the room, plus 18 laptops and hubs and a projector.

17 people at 500 watts
18 laptops at 75 watts each
2 hubs at 20 watts each
one projector at some-more watts

So that's over 10 Kwatts - or the equivalent of 4 electric fires running full blast. No wonder that the air conditioning unit was struggling!

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
