visual c# 2005 how to program

I like the how to program series from Deitel, I own several books including the Java third edition and the C++ second edition. my favorite is the java because has a neat cyberspace add on. The book is ideal for a Java programer who likes to learn Visual C#, the languages are similars making the transition smooth. The book offers numerous code examples and it is easy to download the software from microsoft for free. To my taste I would rather prefered the GUI interface introduced earlier than chapters 13 & 14. it makes the first 12 chapters arid using console interaction only. Overall is an exellent book as the whole how to program series is.

Read the book to get the best out of it

The best way to learn C# or any programming language is to type out and debug many programs. This book provides many examples for the same. Although I find this book too wordy, I recommend to read the book to get the best out of it.

Lengthy, but explains in detail

Visual C# 2005 (2nd edition) is an excellent book, while it is very lengthy, the book covers most of the topics with an extreme amount of detail. While the main focus of the book is C#, coverage of XML and ASP is also included. The review questions at the end of each chapter made this book have a text book feeling commonly seen in a classroom, but this was highly useful. This book is not meant as a quick intro into a programming language, but rather an intermediate or deep study of C#.

Excellant book on c#

This is an excellant book on C# for programmers and also for those who don't know any programming. Deitel books are recommended for everyone. I trully enjoy their books.

Solid foundations for C# 2005 programming

Using this book, with the MS Visual Studio .NET 2005 version, the MS Visual C# 2005 version, and the MS SQL Server 2005 version, one can learn a lot with the new platform. The codings are very much the same as the 2003 version. It is not too difficult for any one who has done C, C++, Java, or Visual BASIC programming. The exercises are very good and have been tested in corporate training sites. I am currently using an older version of this book, for a training class with 14 electrical engineers. Four people are using this book. They are happy with the book, exercises and the software. They are working on their final projects now. The book will be better if more server side applications are covered. More discussion on the differences between Java and C# will be useful for developers.
