Right now we allow people to pre-order the printed book when they buy the PDF as a convenience if they know now they want it, so they don't have to go back later and buy the printed book individually. The printed book is not yet finished. It will be shipped to you once it's printed. Were you not aware...

Well, I couldn't stop myself. I posted this as a comment on Charles' blog:Just for the record, here's what it would look like in Scala:class Fibo {  def fib(n: Int): Int =    if (n }The bytecodes look similar to those generated by the Duby version:public int fib(int); Code: Stack=4, Locals=2, Args_size=2 0: iload_1 1: iconst_2 2: if_icmpge 9 5:...

Hi Cameron,Those ads are placed with a little bit of JavaScript at the bottom of the page. We do it that way so that pages load quickly, and ads are placed after the page is visible. We think the problem is the top ad is being placed in all three spots for you, but aren't able to reproduce the problem. I wonder if you could tell us what...

I've noticed we've needed to recompile between releases. If you'd like to recompile yourself, you can grab the latest release from the source and just use 2.7.0. I haven't tried that yet. Still on 2.6.1-final.https://scalatest.dev.java.net/source/browse/scalatest/If you want to compile ScalaTest 0.9.1 instead of the latest, use release-0.9.1...

Oh, also, is it always the same ad? If so, which one?Thanks.Bill

If you buy the eBook from us, you will later be able buy upgrade to the combo for very close to the difference between combo and ebook. Same is true in the other direction. If you just buy the printed book (which you can't do yet) from Artima, you can later upgrade to the combo for very close to the difference in price. (It may not be exactly...
