Great Transaction

Great transaction. I do not think it even took a week to recieve this brand new book WITH the cd.Would definitely suggest this seller to anyone looking for a book.....

Simply an Excellent Book

This an interesting and great book for beginners on programming. Unlike other computer books, this book is more similar to a textbook with exercises and answers at the back of the book for practising and reviewing. An invaluable asset. So if you can follow the instructions of the writer and go through from page to page, you should have get a very good glimpse of programming.

Great start for any programming language

This text succeeds in providing the reader with a thorough introduction to programming logic without bogging the reader down with a lot of programming syntax. This text teaches you without the need to express itself in only one language. It basically teaches you the logic of programming. From there you can decide which language you want to learn. I can see how you could easily transition into C++ or even Java. This book is a must have for someone who is just getting started in programming and has no previous conceptions about languages.
