Good book, some errors
Rated out of 5 stars, January 12th, 2010
Very easy to read, everything clearly explained in every little detail. But there are some errors that are unacceptable in a book about programming. For example page 81:
"(about double and single quotes) The following two statements are the same:
$string = _Hello World!_;
$string = _Hello World!_;"
This should have been:
$string = 'Hello World!';
$string = "Hello World!";
They could have asked someone to test read the book before actually printing it. Also, this print isn't the first print so I wonder after how many prints a book from the "for dummies" series can be considered free or errors.
