Greg,
It is time to give Jan a break, and go get some book to study. Make sure you get a good one :)
I'm sure Jan is willing to help you with whatever you don't understand, including giving examples, and spoon feeding you basic computer science over the usenet, as he did for many others.
But you'll have to learn how to ask. Saying "please" can help.
