Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A sloppy mish-mash!
Review: As an addendum to my earlier review: Give the devil his due! There IS an internet address, at the end of the introduction.
In this introduction we are told that what we should type is shown BOLD...Example: page 87, for main with arguments, args One Two and Three are NOT bold.
More mixings of the UNDERC prompts(>;) with NO prompts!
But the book is jammed with all kinds of good stuff..to advanced for a beginner!
The implementation of the GNU and BORLAND compilers is not for a beginner...
I bought the book mainly for the "free" CD. You gets what you pays for!
With better (at least some!) editing...and rewriting and less ambition, this book could be a winner!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sloppy!
Review: I'm only in the 1st chapter. Not for a beginner! Author mixes up UnderC and "ordinary c" prompts! Does not define new terms, such as String&. Does not give an update-errata web site.
UnderC is a good idea,, but one does not know where he is in a program, cannot go back and make corrections.
Pretty much a waste of time...perhaps later chapters will be better.

Summary: not worth it
Review: if you are a beginner, and this book claims to be aimed at beginners, steer clear.

The examples are poorly worked and poorly explained
