The goodness was actually the book. The writing was simple and clear, the examples were self-contained and practical. It was a perfect textbook. Many years ago I gave my tattered copy to a second-cousin when he was about 15 and it totally changed his life; he became a coder and never looked back.
Re:Daily Words – Improve your vocabulary day by day on Sunday December 26, 2021 @11:41AM (#29693881)
Hello HN,

I built this to improve my vocabulary and my teenage kids kind of like it, so I thought I would share.

Each day you will get a set of virtual flashcards with seven challenging words to learn (think SAT/GRE level).

If you would rather not get a daily email, just visit https://content.dailywords.net/today when you want, as that link is updated daily.

You can also use it for personal flashcards, but there are lots of things that can do that.

Anyway, enjoy!
