Title: Not good for inexperienced programmers
Review: This was a required book for my university course. I found it to be quite good (I have been programming in various languages since age 6 - now 19), however most of my classmates who were inexperienced programmers found it horrendous. The teaching staff are currently looking for a new text as they find it awful to teach from. I found at least one code sample that doesnt actually comnpile.
Is the review positive or negative?
