Review: The right choice for your first Processing book - In short, if you want to get started in Processing, you won't regret getting this book. I am teaching a course about mathematics and computers and programming, and learned about Processing shortly before the course began. I am always interested in programming languages that are easy to learn, and provide quick visually appealing results to the learner. Processing is definitely such a language. So, in a scramble to add Processing to my syllabus because it was such a good fit, I needed some books to quickly get me up to speed. I purchased this, and I purchased Ira Greenberg's "Processing: Creative Coding and Computational Art". I really like both books a lot, but this book, "Learning Processing", is wonderfully put together and would serve well as either a textbook for a course in programming, or as an introduction to a casual user, whether or not that user has any prior programming experience. The content organization of this book is excellent, and includes examples that are both instructional and inspiring. See, for example, the fractal examples in the section on recursive functions. Beautiful examples made understandable. (By contrast, Greenberg's book is loaded with wonderful examples as well, but the content organization and the lengthy but interesting prose may put off someone who is new to programming and is trying to get up and running quickly.) I can't recommend this book enough if you are thinking of learning Processing. It's a fun language, worthy of any attention it is getting as an introductory programming language (our university uses Processing to teach a course in "Aesthetics & Computation"). And "Learning Processing" is a great book for learning the language.
Review: A great book for learning programming - I recommend Learning Processing by Daniel Shiffman to anyone who wants to learn a programming language. The book is well written. All the answers to Examples and Exercises are on the books website. The software to produce stand alone programs that run on computers, other programmable devices and the web is free. You learn to write code that produces graphic output right from the first lesson. Everything is available so that you could learn the language on your own from this book. It is a step-by-step course that teaches all the basics and more. All the things the Author says in the Introduction I have found to be true. Orrick Hampton Technology Coordinator Rio Hondo Prep

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars
*by K***I on January 6, 2015*

A good book to show how processing works. How to put text, graphics, pictures, and etc. on screen. Shows how to move and animate images. I got this to work with Arduino, and it has a page or two dealing with that, but not much information if that is why you are looking at it.
