Review title: This book is good for half the title
Product review: I would like to start out by saying I loved this book at first. The first few chapters are well done; the concepts at the beginning are well explained and detailed. However, as one progresses into more complex ideas you would expect longer, more detailed explanations to compensate; but that's not the case here. Complex ideas are sometimes given ONE paragraph. A short explanation is good enough for what an 'int' is, but not for complex algorithms or how to analyze them. As I progress, the book becomes an index of concepts I need to look up online or in other books, rather than a source of information.Far too brief without being concise in many areas. More (and varied) examples, with diagrams/flow-charts/pictures, and connections to other concepts would have made this book much more palatable.
