Good source, but not complete.

This book followed my cirriculum, but I don't believe I came out of it as knowledgeable as I should be. There should be interactive excercises in every coding program because the best way to learn is hands on and this is all hands but not on. Include a disk so that chapter by chapter there are interactive quizzes and tests, sample cases and items to really beat it in.

I finally found the book I need for next semester and it arrived all nice and neat in its package. Hope I get a good grade.
