Learning Processing updates
Published October 5th, 2008 in processing.orgI’ve been working on finishing up the book’s web site www.learningprocessing.com. I’ve added some new tutorials, fixed up some of the examples, and slowly but surely am getting more exercise answers online.
In addition, there have been some nice write-ups about the book online, most recently a very fair and accurate review that outlines some of the book’s strengths and weaknesses by Douglas Edric Stanley.
I finally receiivd this very fine book today, and after skimming through it-am very excited about going through the whole thing.
It is rare-and I mean like one in a hundred-that you get a book on programming that is lucid and cogent. This book is a glowing exception. Programming isn’t that hard. The only thing that makes it hard is programming author’s insistence on assuming ANYTHING about the reader.
Make it simple and interesting. This very hard to do and Mr. Shiffman has done this brilliantly!!
