The real challenge of programming isn't learning a language's syntax—it's learning to creatively solve problems so you can build something great. In this one-of-a-kind webcast, author V. Anton Spraul breaks down some of the ways that programmers solve problems and teaches you how to Think Like a Programmer.

In this webcast we answer the questions:

• What is "problem solving" for programmers, and why is it so important?
• Can it be learned, or do some people just "get it"?
• How can someone develop his or her problem-solving ability?
• What are some of the basic techniques of problem-solving for programmers?
