The book was ok

I happpened to come across this book at a thrift store for $0.50. I did learn a bit from it but it was hard to grasp what it was saying. Didn't actually finish the book. It covered some topics well but covered others pretty weak. Didn'y explain the example programs clearly all the time. Does have some good info. Didn't explain clearly where to compile the programs and where to save the examples. Had to figure that part out with some further internet reasearch. Several of the examples had errors when compiled (I redviewed the example in the book with what i typed in the computer line by line and still there were errors when compiled. Was able to fix and modify a few of them.) My overall recommendation is to find a different book to learn from.
