Just one suggestion: Explain why we are using private - without going into depth too much - or just introduce it later... (we are "forced" to use it from the beginning)

Good job, being a programming major myself, I wouldn't know of a better way of teaching this to beginners! Keep upgrading this...

Very nice, fun, and learning game! I have found (i think) 2 mistakes... First, in elite trainning Part 4/8 of Using Strings and Variables, you want that we create a variable for "300$" and you say: "Make sure you write them in the correct order!" but i failed many times before seeing that it's "$300"^^
Second, after buying the antivirus, i wanted to improve it but in the upgrade section, after buying an upgrade for the antivirus, the level is always 0 instead of the price which is always more expensive for each click on it.
That's it and btw sorry if i made some language errors in my comment because i'm French and for this game it's a little more difficult for me :P (but i've just finished the elite trainning and bought the new map)
Nice work again!

why is it that when your batleing your health only resets when you fail then you have to pay a fee for fixing your computer why not have a heal in game button or somthing like that

I was really disappointed finishing the game and not being able to do my own small game. 5 stars though cause I want you to finish the game.

Sooo...I feel like a complete idiot, but I can't even figure out how to start the game. It looks like I should be starting with the "Rite of Passage" in the Training Zone, because it isn't crossed out, but whenever I hit that button it says it is locked. I can't seem to do anything else either besides save my game and buy a couple upgrades for a computer that I don't have...

Oh my god, this game is full of awesome. I never thought I'd ENJOY learning AS3 logic up until now. Thanks for proving me wrong, your reward is a 5/5 and a fav. :D

Part 8/8 Using Strings and Variables
1 private var userMoney:Number = 300;
2
3 myButton.money_text.text = "$" + " " userMoney;
You forgot a + between " " and userMoney or autoconcatenation works?

Great game, love it. Just finished the first "land". I have a few suggestions:
1) Please but your stuff in increasing order, i.e. Love Bug Virus before
Torrential Email Spam and Haxor before the Drill Instructor.
2) Allow sometimes a bit more input flexibility. I prefer for % values to write 8/100 instead of 0.08. It was rally annoying in Tip Calculator 4/10 to got an error because multiplication is noncommutative (and you dont mention a prefered order).
3) The difficulty increase in the battles is sill a bit unbalanced.

Yesterday I completed the rookie training and today I wanted to continue but I had to choose a character altough everything else was saved. Could you make a saved games button or something?

is there anyone who tried to cheat and give himself 80000 instad of 800 ? or am i the only one bad economics in some games

Great Game!!!, ive found a small erro though: In Part 4/7 of Our First Conditional you use the variable userHP, but later mention it as userHp, which can lead to errors.

whats the answer?
Part 15/21 Rite of Passage
1 /* This app is called double the
2 user's number and add 1! */
3 private var userInput:Number = 50;
Correct. Write a line of code that would double the value of userInput. Be sure to use the shorthand method (*=).

whats the answer for last training 11:
What is the shorthand symbol for the following operation? Hint: the answer is 2 characters.
myNumber = myNumber + myValue;

Finished everything in under 2 hours with one rage quit (before I understood how health worked). Guess my programming experience in Matlab counts :P Needs moar content NOW!

First of all I would like to say that this is a nice way of teaching Action Script 3, secondly I held down enter slightly too long and it made my character rage quit. Kind of annoying because that was my first rage quit of the game (up to Conditional Basics now by the way...). Please fix it, thank you.

GJ GC! Concept and execution very worthy of 5 stars. Couple of questions though. Why is 'Password Breaker' 'coming soon' if 'Enemy Soldier' can already use it against you? Also, what is 'Computer RAM' for? Once again, good job.

I noticed when you go back and try to fix something at the beginning of a line it starts to delete everything else so you have to type it all out again. Not a bug just really annoying having to type everything to fix one letter.

in tip calculator there are two questions that caused frustration. First was making the salesTax you don't mention to have the type of Number in the variable. Second was for the variable tax amount the fact that tip has to come first should be mentioned the actual question. please prevent rage quits the programmers lives depend on it.

"We can so use = and != to compare variables, Booleans, and even strings." should probably be "We can so use == and != to compare variables, Booleans, and even strings."

"First, there is more than way to solve any problem." should probably be "First, there is more than one way to solve any problem."

Logic Operators, OR
9/10
(varOne + varTwo < varFour || varTwo*varThree = varFour)
== instead of =?
Is it going to be true like in c++ if only a single =?

Are you getting stuck? I have a private room! I'll hang out there while I work on updates for the game. Stop by if you find a bug or want to chat. Whisper me, copy and paste: /w GregoryCarlson can I join the ProgrammerRPG room? 3.14159265... I'll be there if I'm online. (Please upvote this comment) Thanks. peace

I liked the game. Shame it was so easy to complete, at least so far. I had hoped for some real chalenges, or maybe to see some "self made code" in action. Maybe in a future release, eh?
