Book Reviews of Visual Basic .NET Text Manipulation Handbook: String Handling and Regular Expressions

Book Review: Eh... Not so good.
Summary: 2 Stars

This is a very wordy book for a topic that should probably have a more reference style coverage. It focuses a little bit on how to use the matching functions in .net, and a little bit on how to use regular expressions.

The .net stuff is really easy to get on your own, and the regular expressions stuff is so glossy that its not that useful.

I don't like having this book on my shelf since I can never find anything useful at a glance, but its not worth anything to sell. Maybe I'll burn it.

Summary of Visual Basic .NET Text Manipulation Handbook: String Handling and Regular Expressions

The .NET Framework brings a variety of string manipulation features to the VB language, and some of these, namely regular expressions and the StringBuilder class, are something VB 6 developers may not have seen before. This book teaches you how to manipulate text using these string matching, manipulation, and replacement classes. Issues such as Localization and data conversion will also be investigated.
