this book stinks

this book does not provide a proper grounding of information for directX. when typing in source code from the book i find that i haven't seen or learned about most of the code yet. i end up having to figure out most of the language by myself through experimentation. if you are a beginner, stay away from this book because it is very confusing and irritating. I have read this book and found i couldn't really program a game. if you are an intermediate level, then you will just get confused from the frequent jumping and going suddenly to an advanced level. if you are an expert, this book won't help you as it doesn't teach you much more that basics-inter. i had to buy a second book to learn directX since this one was pointless. dont waste like $30 on this book. GET A DIFFERENT BOOK.
