Customer Reviews

This book is great! It teaches you how to make games.

This book is fantastic. It doesn't spend to much time on any one topic and it doesn't go off and take 20 pages to explain what a string is. This book tells you what your are doing, why, and how to put what you have learned into a real life program. It quickly moves through the material but it doesn't move so fast that you can't understand. In about a week you start producing some great programs. In another week or so you will be making games, learning about sprites, 3D worlds, polygons, how to incoorporate music into your programs and so on. This book actually teaches you how to make games.

Easy to understand, great examples - an AWESOME book

The authors of this literary treat did an awesome job. The examples were great, and the sample code was very useful and worked perfectly! I would reccommend this book to anyone who is a beginner or just wants to rekindle their VB flame. To the Authors, nice job and keep up the great work! Quite Possibly The Best Book Ever Published!!!

What I think of "Teach yourself Visual Basic 4 in 21 days".

This book is a "must have" for all who are interested in programming with Visual Basic. The book teaches you the basics of programming with VB, in a very easy, but serious language. It goes from the absolute basics to the more advanced stuff. One of the teaching powers of the book, is the quizes and exercises (with answers). This makes it more than the usual descriptive book which are so common in programming. I can only recommend it highly.
