"Sams Teach Yourself Game Programming with Visual Basic in 21 Days" teaches the reader the art of game programming from the ground up. The reader is assumed to have basic programming knowledge that he wishes to apply to the creation of basic games. Upon completion of the book readers will have learned to build eight games including card games, puzzles, and strategy games, each focusing on a specific task and building the reader's knowledge and skill level. The final week is a culmination of the skills learned in the first two weeks where the reader builds a complete game incorporating sound, animation, etc.

Ready-to-use building blocks for integrated circuit design. Why start coding from scratch when you can work from this library of pre-tested routines, created by an HDL expert? There are plenty of introductory texts to describe the basics of Verilog, but "Verilog Designer's Library" is the only book that offers real, reusable routines that you can put to work right away. "Verilog Designer's Library" organizes Verilog routines according to functionality, making it easy to locate the material you need. Each function is described by a behavioral model to use for simulation, followed by the RTL code you'll use to synthesize the gate-level implementation. Extensive test code is included for each function, to assist you with your own verification efforts. Coverage includes: Essential Verilog coding techniques Basic building blocks of successful routines State machines and memories Practical debugging guidelines Although "Verilog Designer's Library" assumes a basic familiarity with Verilog structure and syntax, it does not require a background in programming. Beginners can work through the book in sequence to develop their skills, while experienced Verilog users can go directly to the routines they need. Hardware designers, systems analysts, VARs, OEMs, software developers, and system integrators will find it an ideal sourcebook on all aspects of Verilog development.
