David R. Really, you have to give a guy a chance to read it in a few months, not a few days. So far, the information is good. But I need time to actually sit in front of the screens and do the work before I can tell you how much it helps. I'm an old guy (69) trying to learn something new and get away from the Microsoft hole that Bill Gates is digging for us. I own three Raspberry Pi Zeros and two Raspberry Pi 4s that I'm trying to do different things with. The book has been very helpful. Now, if you could publish a Debian book of commands and their syntax, I'd be in for another purchase. (History: started programing in Fortran, then Basic, then MS Basic for Macros. Probably should have gone into computer science instead of biology but, live and learn.)

Rob R. This book is also a reference and should be read slowly, learning along the way. It has many colored images which help explain the teaching. This book is meant to be used as it is made of good quality, shiny pages. It is nicely played out for learning, each chapter leading to the next. I recommend it! I feel like I have a good foundation to pursue more complex goals.
