5.0 out of 5 stars Good book!, 4 Jun 2006
By A. Ross (South Korea) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am already a C# programmer, but I have to teach it to students who have never even heard of programming before. So I wanted something that would make it fun and cover all key concepts, but still keep it as simple as you can for a programming language. This book does all of that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best beginners programming book i've ever read!, 31 Dec 2003
By Daniel Keane "Mr Keane" (Derbyshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a great book to start off with. Currently I'm at university and i have to use visual basic but i wanted to try out C++, while my knowledge in vb has helped me with C++ i can't help but feel that this book is great for people with very little experience. So many books of this kind are poorly laid out or filled with screen shots and no actual information, this book does exactly what it says it will by providing the reader with all the juicy needed bits. The only downside is the game programming approach which can feel a little silly, but i was surprised by how much it helped with putting the programmes together. Overall this is a great book which i reccomend over any other!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars another winner, 28 April 2007
By bonzo (Leeds, UK) - See all my reviews
I've used several of the books in this 'for absolute beginners' series and been very pleased with all of them. This is another winner.

Clear explanations, fun examples based on building simple games, and at the end of each chapter a series of 'Challenges' inviting you to develop the ideas a bit further.

Lots of scope for tweaking the examples to see what happens and for trying out your own ideas. You'll probably need other books later, when you want to take your knowledge of C# a bit further, but for a first book this one is highly recommended.
