"Sample chapter":

Chapter One. Jumping In This is the only unique guide that will help you with learning Go in one day: • Go to your local market. • Buy a whole fish. Salmon or Cod is recommended but even a Catfish will do. Trout is also quite effective. • Go home and turn on your computer. • Start up your IDE of choice. • Now take that fish you bought and smack yourself in the head with it. • Repeat step 5 until the thought of “jumping in” leaves your mind. There aren’t any shortcut. Don’t rush yourself, learn the basics and build on them. Otherwise you’re going to crash and burn.


Just to be clear: This is a complete quote of the "Free Sample Chapter" of the book.

(I first thought your comment was some kind of joke.)


8 'pages', and a waste of time. Good thing I paid $0.00 for it to check out.
