The reason I am creating this tutorial is that there seems to be very little for the absolute beginner to programming on the Web. Yet the Internet and the Web encourage interest in computers and that interest naturally leads to a desire to "take control", which means learning to program!

Why me? Well I am a professional programmer who came to programming from an electronic engineering background. I have used (and continue to use) several computer languages and don't have any personal interest in promoting any particular tool or language. Oh, and when I started, nobody else seemed to be doing it! Since then several other tutors for beginners have appeared, but this one seems to have acquired enough of a fan base that I'll keep it going.
