Description

Hello, I am Dr. LovelessIn this very special course we will be learning the 'IsValid?' method.I encourage you to enjoy the course to the fullest. Sit back, relax and definitely enjoy the slow coding exercises meant to take you on a journey in real time, with no fancy or stuffy templates on the other screen guiding us through at an impossible pace.Don't worry, the video is safe for kids. Put it on in front of your children. Dr. Loveless cares about learning most of all and is actually an electrical engineer, so he knows a little bit and that shows in this video series.These are hard coding exercises that are not scripted, they are performed from experience. IF a problem arises, we solve it in real time. Best Wishes and the 'IsValid?' method is completely viable to complete majorly complicated feats and tasks with if you so choose to learn it.What is 'IsValid?' ?If an object is valid, it is available to be acted upon. Why is that so important? Look inside and see what you can do. Thanks for being there to watch the videos, I shot this one from an exotic location and no I am not on a luxury vacation right now, but there is some noise in the background at least a couple times or once that I heard during revision. My normal microphone (Astro A40, Mixamp Pro) is at home right now. I will be getting a new computer soon for development so stay tuned for more videos if you like them.Best Wishes and Many More to Come,Dr. Loveless
