I'm not far into the book, and make no mistake, I AM learning. I'd like to give the book 5 stars for content and 0 for the examples. I had to settle for an average of three.


Having subroutines presented without the calling syntax has made things much more difficult for me than I think they need to be. For example, see the matrix manipulation functions in Chapter 2.


To make matters worse, these examples aren't in the downloadable code examples.
