I used it and was able to develop a 3000 line, 3-d plotting and animation routine in 3 days. The book gives very good examples of writting applications from the ground up. If you do not plan on using libraries (graphics and other utilities) that have been built (i.e. common windows and other C based packages) it is an invaluable book (IMHO). Obviously I am recommending it. Peter Kovach Facation - A vacation of the mind Internet: kovach@src.honeywell.com
