[C#] Ways To Learn Intermediate Scripting Skills?

Hello Unity Forum

I am in the process of teaching myself how to write in C# and since my college doesn't have a specific class for it I've been teaching myself through youtube videos, books, and documentation. The problem is most of the content I run into is very beginner heavy and expects little to no knowledge OR it's advance and glazes over things I've yet to understand such as exactly how coroutines work. The best intermediate stuff I've found is on Unity Gem but if I could get recommendations for C# books or other sources which teach beyond "Making your first game" that would be very helpful. I've already kind of wasted my money on books like "Learning C# by Developing Games with Unity 3D" which I read from front to back without learning much at all (nothing against the book). I would like something one or two steps higher than that.

Thanks again from Jesse "BsseeJ" Bergerstock

 

Excellent Coroutine Article

Jon Skeet is a well known C# coder, and has written a book called C# in Depth. I haven't read it, but it's on my wish list.

A book that I have personally read and recommend is CLR via C#, it doesn't focus on C# as much of a language, but more about the bigger picture (IL the language it gets compiled to).

 

Thank you very much for those recommendations. Which one of the two can you see someone with about half a years experience being able to understand better?

 

It's hard to say for sure; I'd recommend clicking the "Look Inside" button on Amazon and see for yourself which one is more at your level.
