Book Reviews of the Essential ActionScript 3.0 (Essential) (Essential)
Customer Review: Another great book from Colin Moock
Summary: 5 Stars
Essential AS 3.0 is the Bible of AS 3.0 reference. Very clear examples of everything ActionScript. Each example is well defined, and the code is very clear and concise. This book is not for the novice, but more of a reference for someone who has some programming knowledge, but wants to learn ActionScript 3.0.
The book has great example files online and it is another expert writing by Colin Moock. His explanations of the code are clear, and his knowledge of AS 3.0 seems to be endless. With the major overhaul of ActionScript from 2.0 to 3.0, Colin does a great job of relating the old to the new. I especially enjoyed the section on XML and the new XML Class and XMLList Class and the new filtering with E4X. ActionScript has came a far way from 2 to 3 in the handling of XML.
One other thing that Mr. Moock brings to light is the sometimes subtle, sometimes not so subtle references to design patterns and what to look for in your programming to make it more concise, flexible and reusable. He has made me look at writing programming in a different way, and opened my eyes to smarter programming.
I recommend this book for intermediate to expert level ActionScript programmers.
