I take all your points with the humility of a learner, but I must retort something you mistook my wordings. I never once said that book was wrong, I only stated that the code in the book was not working. There is a fine line betwixt the two, but i never really even meant to imply that the book was in any way wrong.Besides, please state the wrong assumptions that I made. If you expect to teach someone, you must define the wrong assumptions the student has made. And once more, I can read. The code you replace with mine is that of the Cookbook, from which the error was generated: cannot find object "Person" in package main. I was forced in to main before I even made my wrong assumptions. I also tried very hard to copy code correctly and right any typos on the <bold>four</bold> different modules I tried. If you read this please respond but stating the assumptions I made and correcting them. Even if you flame me at least I can move on with my lessons
