asp.net & vb.net books

I'm new to asp.net and learning vb.net. I'm considering
which book I should purchase. Any opinions on these two
and/or others?

Beginning ASP.NET 1.1 with VB .NET 2003 by Wrox
Murach's ASP.NET Web Programming with VB.NET

Thanks

Stephen Walther's book "ASP.NET Unleashed" by SAMS is a good way to learn.

I was happy with "ASP.NET Programming with Visual Basic.NET" by Duthie.
It's a good intro that walks you through some sample projects.

Hi,

I got two books:

Beginning ASP.NET, Wrox kind of sucks. It is very basic and uninspiring.
ASP.NET unleashed, by SAMS, by stephen Walther, is excellent. Easy to read,
inspiring, and has all the information I need. We are a couple of
programmers here, and I decide who get the "good" book to read, and who gets
the "crappy" one... that is more or less the difference between them.

and so far I'm loving it, I like the the authors don't beat around the bush and just come straight out and say what the book is sopposed to be. They assume the you have computer experience. I'm loving the exercises they really leave you with a sense of freedom to do what you want, just follow the rules. Just a little rant, I would definitely recommend this book to anyone interested in C. Great addition to anyones library.

My personal K&R (3rd edition) wish list: 1. That a 3rd edition is actually published! 2. Make any and all corrections from earlier editions. 3. Update to comply with the c99 Standard. 4. A reference to other C books to aid the programmer. 5. A listing of C related web sites. 6. For ease of use, an appendix of tables used in the text. 7. Make an appendix with the full ascii table. 8. Make an appendix that includes a C Programming FAQ.

Hey everyone, I am a Java programmer, somewhere between novice to advanced. I wanted to know if it is still recommended to read "The C Programming Language" 2nd Edition? This edition was released in 1988, it is now 2007, almost 20 years. Also, since it is so old, is there some supplemental tutorial recommend to go along with it? Thanks for your advice. Rajiv Battula

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
