To get the most out of this book

The beginning of each chapter will begin with a little theory that should help consolidate your understanding. Thereafter, a series of examples are used to explain the concepts and to help the reader grasp the topic better.

This book also avoids continuing with examples from previous chapters. Each chapter's examples are short and do not require the reader to have knowledge of previous chapters. That way, you can pick any chapter you link and work through it.
