Issue is i have made payment since may 10th and you know then the elis website was newly launched and it wasn't accepting our case iD ,the one with 2013AF.....,after all unsuccessful attempt then,it was in this forum some people posted that we have to enter as CGL...... ,after more than 3 people posted that,i followed the CGL..... Method and it worked, but my concern is after making the payment since may 10th,i have been trying to find out where they got to know about the CGL.....method,i mail US embassy,no response, i wonder if any correction is needed now coz i was told that the elis website admin recently correct the issue of case ID not being accepted few weeks ago.

For those of us preparing to relocate to US,please prepare your mind that at start it may look like hell and a lot of things will be so strange to you but always have that positive thinking that all will be well. The past few weeks of my stay here has been hell,for those of you that are planning to stay with someone you may not find it pleasant if you don't make it a short stay and try as much as possible to be self dependent on your own after a little time . Lastly learn how to drive before you come to the US to speed up your roa test and your maneuver ability and be wise,ready to learn and don't do oversabi here.

idriez: .
I'm having the same challenge and if I may ask, were you not asked about the payment at your POE? Kindly share your experience...
wot really happen is that I was not ask about the payment at the POE,I just handed over the file to the immigration officer and he ask me if I'm coming for the first time and I said yes..... That's all ooo then the next day I wanted to pay then this problem of DOS CASE ID now start. I have been calling Elis help line for the past two weeks and they are sounding strange that they don't know the what I mean but I think the ELIS process is kind of tricky.
ProgrammingRe: I Need To Learn Algorithms by joecrown: 3:21am On Jun 02, 2013
please i need you guys to enlighten me on "algorithm" and i would like to know if i will be needing it for my upcoming IT course am taking.....am better in further maths than ordinary maths and am willing to learn...
Fayimora: Errr you kinda slipped. Yes I know you need maths skills and thats why I told @OP earlier to work on them for now. If you cannot learn without code then you aren't actually learning algorithms. The only way you can understand the ACTUAL CONCEPTS is with such books. They dont say anything about language or some bloody code. They go STRAIGHT to the point, its up to you to implement it in whatsoever language.

What I have learnt is, never learn any concept by looking at code. Read about it, work on it with pencil and paper until you understand it and can compute results for any input you are given. If you have noticed, most of those 'humans' that invent these algorithms are mathematicians! Ever asked yourself why?

Dont forget that an algorithm is not about writing code to do something. An algorithm is a sequence of computational steps. There is a difference between a programmer and someone who knows how to write code. A programmer MUST have strong computational and analytical skills. That you can only possibly get from maths.

Anyways, its all up to you. What you(@ekt) are saying is not wrong at all. Its just not the right advice for someone who would love to learn ALGORITHMS. Again if anyone is on the "just get a job" side of the fence then what I have just said should be totally ignored.
