This is the resource I've been looking for. I'm working my way through the book but it gets in the weeds really early. It's all fun and games and then chapter 4 just hits like a brick wall. Amos does a tremendous job explaining the why behind things, in a more wheels to the pavement way.

Oh for sure, like I said this makes a lot of sense. All I was saying was that as a pitch for learning the language, the part after the file read had been sorted was much more compelling and interesting.
