DIDN'T ANSWER MY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS

I've been using Java for several years, as it was the required language for my graduate college studies. But I always hated Java and wanted to use a simpler script language such as Groovy or Kotlin. Java had seemed much too verbose for, say, simple Android applications. At first, this book seemed to deliver on its claim to teach Groovy quickly. But then it failed to deliver what I most needed. For example, I wrote a program in Java that required keyboard data input, but that program wouldn't run in Groovy. And Tam's book provided no examples of keyboard input, using the Java Scanner or any other utility. Also, in another area where I had difficulties, Tam's chapter on lists, maps and other sequences contained zero code examples. The book looked like it had been poorly translated from some other language into English. For example, it repeatedly used the word "worth" instead of "value" when describing the output from a code example. Thus it would say, "That example gives a worth of 6" . So I'm giving this book a worth of three.
