Reviews

5/5 would read again *chefs kiss*

[Nikolai Ilushko · Rating 2 out of 5]

The book is just showing you basic syntax in hurry. It’s too simple for somebody who knows programming language and it wouldn’t fit a beginner as it just doesn’t explain the basic concepts as it should by its title.

[Barry Feigenbaum · Rating 3 out of 5]

Basic intro. Statements, arrays, console i/o.

Little content but low price. Not much different than what is easy to get from the internet. Not for strong programmers.
