Congrats dudes! Do we have female programmers?

Congrats guys

Thumbs up

Congratulations!

Good one boys

Phew!. A crazy 6 days it has been, but success and smiles at the end.

I entered this challenge to compete against but also with others. I picked up a new language with a new framework to try to build an app to in @Seun's words "... create a simple JAMB result checking website that works just like the official version and can handle millions of candidate records and heavy traffic from all of them trying to check their results on the same day." The work was evaluated and with a replies back and forth, I was able to push my final changes at the last minute. It was an exciting challenge taking some of my skills to new areas, and leaving me with new friends.

I can not thank Seun enough for this. Special mentions also to @techytom, @pystar and @jacob05 for their team spirit and efforts. Also thank you Nairaland.

Thanks a lot.

For those looking for something advanced in Python you can read Python Testing Cookbook by Greg. L Turnquist http://www.amazon.com/Python-Testing-Cookbook-Greg-Turnquist/dp/1849514666 .It is recommendable.I am currently reading the last chapter. And, one thing, it is good for references. I even prefer it to Expert Python Programming by Tarek Ziadé.

Welldone boys!

@ Seun it is a nice initiative. It is a pity I don't know nadda abt programming but I will make sure my son does!

All I know is little networking, sales and marketing!

Welldone

In many places this kinda project doesn't even receive anything monetary but some presents or medals. I think he tried beyond my expectation by placing some money on it.

You guys are taking this out of ordinary. This project goes no where near exceptional - believe me. Just that we are creating hill out of mole.

Seun am impressed, nice one. And Congrats for the Three Winners. Keep it Up NL.

@Xterra
To run the code, you should have python and mysql installed on your system. once you have that installed, just download and unzip the source code from google code. read the instructions in the read me file and run it. its very simple.
