As a result, you will definitely want a second book, like something from the Unleashed series (I have VS 2015 Unleashed) that explains the syntax in more detail along with plain english.As an example, Chapter 4 of this book goes into explaining Boolean operators, assignment operators and the like, the is blah TRUE and/or FALSE stuff. It is simple on its face, but one of the frustrations of C like languages (compared to something like Visual Basic) is that the syntax is nonsensical. That would be fine if the author would explain all of the operators being discussed in the chapter.The author will say ^= as in var1 ^= var2; results in var1 being assigned the value that is the result of var1 ^ var2Now if this is confusing...yeah, exactly, C type languages read like stereo instructions but that is fine so long as the syntax is explained as part of the lesson. In this case the author never explained what the ^ operator does. I am left pulling my hair out looking back figuring I must have skipped pages. Nope, author just forgot, so time wasted as I finally give up and go get another book, look up the table of operators to find it is the VB equivalent of XOR, meaning the result if the evaluation of var1 ^ var2 is true if var1 and var2 have opposite Boolean values, True False or False True and the result of the evaluation is false if both var1 and var2 are true or both are false. Easy right? Because I took 10 seconds to explain it which the author doesn't bother to do.While this problem is certainly not the end of the world it makes for not so smooth sailing and without other books, readers may just pull the ripcord all together and give up. So if you bite the bullet and get this book, get another C# book that is more of a dictionary style, just listing different expressions, syntax, etc so that if you get stuck on something, you can look it up elsewhere. Personally, the Unleashed books is great for this. This book plus Unleashed are a powerful combo. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended to all my students and a valuable summary of the state-of-the art in C# programming. *by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2016* This book continues the Wrox tradition of books, that teach programming in a step-by-step manner, which started in 2002. It is written in easy-to-understand English, which makes it ideal for my students. It has a very interesting table-of-content, that fo example shows cloud programming before ADO.NET. Entity Framework, for which there is no up-to-date book at the moment, is also covered. Obviously the books was written beginning with a blank page and C# 6 from the start which makes it outstanding compared to books that are refurbished every 2nd year. And it is slim compared to many other books. I read only a few chapters, so it's to early to know about errata issues. ### ⭐ Don't waste your time!!! *by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2018* This book had so many errors and missing instructions that it made reading this book worthless. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/23032127-beginning-c-6-programming-with-visual-studio-2015-1st-edition](https://www.desertcart.de/products/23032127-beginning-c-6-programming-with-visual-studio-2015-1st-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
