[hpsdr] C# Book Recommendation

[Neal Campbell]

I personally find the Microsoft 'Step by step' books too tedious to ever
finish (I do have a lot of them however).

The Jon Skeet book is my personal favorite but I would rank it in the
advanced category, not the beginner.

My recommendation would be the Murach book:


*http://www.amazon.com/Murachs-C-2012-Joel-Murach/dp/1890774723/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1456507708&sr=8-13&keywords=c+sharp+programming

*The format is neat (one side of a page is text and the other side is work
steps to do the action), it folds well on a table so you can work easily
with a computer while reading it and it seems to move at the right pace.73*
