"C# in Depth" on Kindle - is it readable?
-
Is the Kindle format ebook from Manning actually readable on a Kindle? Does anybody have that ebook? It has a lot of C# source code listings inside, I wonder if the publishers actually used some special formatting.

Don't have that one. The only programming book I tried reading on my Kindle was a python one that someone here promoted on the lounge (IIRC as a free download). When I finally got around to looking at it (IIRC a week or so after the fact), it was as much of a cluster-elephant as I feared it would be. :doh:
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

I've a number of code books on Kindle - all the code samples are basically unreadable...so I'd guess not.

Are they Kindle formats (MOBI, AZW) or PDF? I know PDFs don't work well on Kindle.

Kindle format - bought from Amazon. It is just due to the number of characters across...any big C# (or java) code listing always ends up wrapping and being followed by a large flock of seagulls.

I usually read technical books using the kindle app on my tablet. They format horribly on an actual kindle. I usually get them here, there are a ton of free ones: http://it-ebooks.info/tag/programming/[^]

Are all code samples fine? Do you read on an actual Kindle device?

Yeah the code samples are perfectly readable, obviously you need to type them out but this isn't a bad thing.
Great, thank you!
