Become a Pro Programmer

This was a spectacular book on getting going into the realm of programming.

It had a huge ream of knowledge when it comes to everything you need for starting computer programming.

I would highly recommend this book for those who are interested in learning coding.

4.8/5

Excellent, well organized introduction to the general concepts and introductory details of programming. As an English major, I tried a programming class at Carnegie Mellon University years ago. I didn't make it far before I was lost and left in the dirt. If I had read this book before that, I may have actually had a chance at keeping up! I highly recommend this. Especially if you don't want or hope to ever be a programmer, but you will need to work with them, this is very helpful!

Will finish when ready, left off on page 230... Great so far.

Perspicuous for beginners. Nonetheless, very very very general, lacking sufficient details in each part.
