This Beginning Beginner's series of books was born out of frustration: Most "beginners" books on web and mobile development are not designed for true beginners. Often in beginners' books the language is over complicated and laden with jargon. The books assume too much prior knowledge or experience. In the end, many readers new to programming become frustrated and just give up. The reality is that programming is completely approachable and even fun to learn if taught correctly. That's exactly what the Beginning Beginners' Guide series aims to do: Help true beginners learn to code- and make learning fun. This series of programming books is for you if you've never written a line of code before- or if you've tried to learn from other books unsuccessfully. You CAN learn to code well. You don't have to be mathematically oriented, or uber-intelligent. Learning to code won't always be easy- but it is doable. If you can manipulate an Excel spreadsheet, you can learn programming.
