You didn't learn anything in the first 180 pages of one of John's books, and
you posted that question?

i said variant because that's what greg said - i wasn't really
focusing on what type of data it was, i was more interested in the

Okay if I should scrap it are there any recommendations on good books
to read?

Yeah I have read through the first 200 pages or so at Barnes and
Noble, but never actually bought it. I didn't really start to learn
anything until I got to about 180 or so, but it definitely looks like
a good book. Thanks for the recommend.
