Not necessary, don't be afraid to ask for help on anything basic in the programming sections.
Here's some helpful links for you, if you're looking to get into programming
http://www.w3schools.com/
http://www.tizag.com/phpT/
http://www.vbtutor.net/vbtutor.html
http://www.sthurlow.com/python/lesson01/
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
Judging by what you're asking for help on, and how you ask for it, people will pick up on how to explain it to you, and not just throw a bunch of complex code at you and expect you to understand.
