    Sam's OOP 21 Days Book - Error?

    Hello,

    Does anyone out there have the SAM's TEACH YOURSELF OBJECT ORIENTED
    PROGRAMMING IN 21 DAYS book? Starting on page 16, on Listing 1.4, does it
    seem odd to you? It seems to have you type what is already in the region and
    it becomes redundant. Am I just misreading or is this an error?

    I already saw an error in how the author wants you to make the class
    extensions as .Visual Basic instead of .vb.

    Thanks,
    Brian

    OK..they moved some of the code outside the #REGION area. Seems odd but will
    move on.

    Has anyone used this book? I am comfortable with the basics of VB.NET and
    need good instruction on OOP. Is this a good book or is there a better one
    out there?

    Thanks,
    Brian

      This is the best OOP book I have ever read in my life, but the code snips
      are all in C++, and some of their examples use multiple inheritance, which
      VB.NET cannot do. There are other similar books though, written for VB.NET,
      C#, J# and Java.
