Indeed, the first edition is draggy at the beginning. The second edition is meant precisely to dive right in and get cracking, without sacrificing any principles. I recommend people read the second edition instead of the first one. [Why should you trust me? My name's on the cover. <-;]
- muraiki 12y agoThank you, that is good to know. Also, please know that I am sincerely grateful for all of your work. Without the software and materials that you and your team labored to create -- and which you provide freely -- I might not be a professional programmer today.
- shriramkmurthi 12y agoWow, thanks. I passed this remark on to the rest of the team. Totally made our day!
- xaritas 12y agoI'm teaching my kids how to program using the 2nd edition because it's the introduction to programming that I always wish I had received. They love it! Thanks.
