  • Free PDF Download: Adobe Flash ActionScript 3.0 Programming

    This manual provides a foundation for developing applications in Adobe® ActionScript® 3.0. To best understand the ideas and techniques described, you should already be familiar with general programming concepts such as data types, variables, loops, and functions. You should also understand basic object-oriented programming concepts such as classes and inheritance. Prior knowledge of ActionScript 1.0 or ActionScript 2.0 is helpful but not necessary.

    -chapter 1

    Here is a free download of a programming manual for Flash AS3 from Adobe.

    CCNA Exploration 4.0 Curriculum / Course Material installers, for offline viewing


    I did not make any of these, and I’m not affiliated with Cisco in any way. They all work on my computer. If they don’t work for you, then I’m not very sure if I can help you. 🙂 I put them up simply to share.

    You may also want to check out my other resource page for CCNA V5 Curriculum Download for Routing & Switching.

    It’s a little hard for people taking up a CCNA Exploration course to have to go online and login to Cisco Networking Academy, every time they have to read the lectures. What if you have an exam tomorrow, but your Internet connection is down?

    Here’s some helpful installers of the curriculum / course materials of CCNA Exploration 1, CCNA Exploration 2, CCNA Exploration 3, and CCNA Exploration 4. Installing them would let you view the course materials even when you are offline.

    All of these are properties of Cisco Networking Academy.

  • PDF Download: Head First Java (2nd Edition) – by Katy Sierra and Bert Bates

    PDF Download: Head First Java (2nd Edition) – by Katy Sierra and Bert Bates

    Learning Java? Great, this book will help you.

    I uploaded this Java Programming PDF to share with IT Elective 1 (Object Oriented Programming with Java) classmates. 🙂

    I searched for it in Google, and I’m lucky to find this free e-book of Head First Java – Second Edition. I can’t remember where I got it from though. It’s been days (EDIT: no, it’s been months now! or maybe years), and I got a poor memory. lol.

    And by the way, I used A-PDF Split to split the e-book into separate chapters of the PDF for our convenience. The file I downloaded is only one PDF file which had 690 pages. It lags in slow computers. It’s also better off being separated by chapters for ease of reading, right? So, there. 😀

    I hope the Java PDF download links on this blog entry (Head First Java – Download) help you guys, and if you do find them helpful, please LIKE my website on Facebook. To find it on Facebook, search for “Catzie.net” 😀

    Java is a programming language originally developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems (which is now a subsidiary of Oracle Corporation) and released in 1995 as a core component of Sun Microsystems’ Java platform.

    The syntax of Java is mostly derived from that of C and C++ programming languages, but with simpler object model and fewer low-level facilities.

  • CCNA 2 Powerpoint Slides (Routing Protocols and Concepts 4.0)

    If you’re looking for course materials that you can install for offline viewing, click here to check the CCNA Exploration 4.0 Curriculum / Course Material installers, for offline viewing. They have more explanations that these PPT slides.

    Taking up CCNA 2 (Cisco Certified Network Associate – Routing Protocols and Concepts) ? These Powerpoint slides might help you in your study. They are not actually the course materials that you will be able to view as a student. They are the materials being used by instructors. I prefer reviewing using these because they are simpler. And no, no. This ain’t cheatsco. lol.

    The following .zip file contains the 11 chapters for CCNA 2.

McFadden) as my reference. I used the e-book and Powerpoint presentations to review for exams, and I’m sharing the following files with you:
