You do not want a book that does everything for you. You might get stuck for hours, but in the end you will learn something, which leads me to... 3. The downside of this book (actually I noticed that could be debatable), is the number of typos in the examples of code.

One of them I remember is when he had done a 'switch' statement, he left out the integer expression... and being a newbie, it takes awhile to catch. And he confuses his pointer names A LOT, naming one \*pt then switching to \*pn. The up-side to this is you will be fixing people's code in the real world, debugging, etc... so that's how I look at it. But frustrating nonethel
