I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1: Primer, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains programming made everything click for me. I've been struggling with graphics for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about programming - it reminded me so much of my own experience with compute. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

While Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1: Primer makes several valuable points about programming, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of graphics seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to compute. That said, the sections on graphics are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in graphics, this could be a truly outstanding work.

Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of programming, which offers a compelling framework for understanding programming. While some may argue that programming, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about programming.
