How to learn C#?

[lollollol1]

I'd really like how to learn C#, I'm a big fan of programming but I've never actually been thinking of learning how to program my own things, until now.

I'd like you guys to somehow give me a quick guide to get me started.

Really really good, recommended by Nesox and Apoc (not 100% it was him).

I got that Book Danne, but I haven't tested it out yet, cause I don't wanna install the Visual until I got my win 7 rolling, but back to to topic.

Is that book really that good for beginners?


Edit: I also got Visual C# .NET in action

Read this. It may be referring to C++, but it applies here as well.

You can't really learn programming from a book. It can give you a basic understanding of the language, but to actually learn programming you have to attempt to write new code you haven't tried before, and you have to keep doing that. Copying examples from books won't help either, you have to actually be writing it yourself. If you run into problems, go to a programming forum and ask about them.

I always do what the book says, then do my own version.
So far it's been working great with other language.

I'd say that curiosity is the best fuel for learning.
