Paul is very cleaver! ;-)

You can also try the following website to give you some pointers:
  http://www.delphibasics.co.uk/

Also remember that you can navigate the source code in the LCL
(Lazarus Component Library) almost like a web browser. Ctrl+RightClick
on for example TForm and it will take you to the definition of TForm
class. You can Ctrl+RightClick on many things. Method names,
variables, class names etc...  Browsing the source code of the LCL is
a good way to find information as well.

You can also browse the existing help online. Not everything is
completely documented, but you can find a lot of information. The RTL
is well documented.
