Lua is a powerful, fast, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. It's good and has a very open license so you can use it widely - even within your commercial products - at no cost. That's made it very popular across a wide range of applications.
We've offered public Lua courses for several years, and I have just scheduled two extra courses in the run up to Christmas ...
1. Learning to Program in Lua - for delegates who are newcomers to programming - from Thursday 15th December to Sunday 18th December inclusive. See
[here]
2. Lua Programming - for delegates with prior programming experience - from Friday 16th December to Sunday 18th December inclusive. See
[here]
Lua has quite a hobby / enthusiast following - this extra course is likely to be quite small in numbers, and is great for the enthusiastic / entrepreneur types who are happy to give up their weekend, and who want to learn something to play with and practice over Christmas. More conventional timings return for this course in the New Year.
Full upcoming pubic course list before Christmas:
PHP Programming and Learning to Program in PHP - from 27th November
[link]
Perl Programming and Learning to Program in Perl - from 5th December

Python Programming and Learning to Program in Python - from 11th December

The New Year starts with ...
Learning to Program in Tcl - from 3rd January
[link]
All courses confirmed / running, but still some places available on all courses.
If you have missed one of these courses ... found this page on the archive ... please follow the links anyway. You'll find the next scheduled dates listed there, for at least 9 months ahead!
We also offer
Ruby courses and
C and C++ courses - next courses in those languages are not until mid January 2012.
