The C# Programming Yellow Book

by Rob Miles · 2010

+ Want to read

This guide teaches the C# language starting from the basics, building understanding step by step rather than through a list of syntax. The author mixes plain explanation with humour and wordplay, while leaning heavily on solving problems in a logical way. Readers can follow along with example programs that accompany the text. It suits anyone who wants a patient, playful route into programming, whether they are new to coding or moving over from another language.
