This is a great book! It's entertaining, uses images, normal text/situations - it actually stimulates your brain to make things fun. It uses learning technologies/techniques to make information come alive and stick in your brain.
This is actually a Java book, I've been using it for VB.Net. The C# code for it is like 98% identical. I've only taken one semister of Java (and trust me, not much sunk in ) and I'm having no problems translating it to VB.Net.
I'm actually taking all the Java code they have and retranscribing it in VB.Net.
So far I've learned some advanced OOP priciples (interface programming) and the Observer pattern. I'm working on the Designer Pattern now.
I've known what interfaces were for a while, but I didn't really know. I thought interfaces were just about enforcing programming practices between teams... I had no idea how cool they could be in exhanging classes in collections and for extending classes dynamically at runtime...
It's like I'm starting to think I can understand Divils tutorials soon!
I'm only on chapter 3 right now - not entirely sure how to implement the Decorator Pattern, but it looks useful. This is the sort of book that's just cool to read
