I got this book and it’s very good. Very useful for novices and makes learning so easy.
the downside is that it’s $60.

free… and good.

Lots of good books in C# though you really can’t go wrong. Pretty excellent language overall.

the book name is HEAD FIRST C# by O’reilly ← Great book, lot’s of exercises that are entertaining and capture your attention. This is a requirement when learning your first programming language IMHO… At first glance the style is a bit odd but if you work through the book it grows on you. Just make sure you do the exercises. If I could use this type of formatting in the books I write I totally would :slight_smile:

I also used the yellow book at the same time. Between the two of those and the C# courses i took at 3dBuzz I am able to make my games do most of what I need. Of course, I stay away from the really difficult stuff and buy assets for things like that when possible.
