Description
Are you an experienced programmer who wants to get started quickly in JavaScript and the HTML DOM? This is your book.
Do you need encyclopaedic knowledge of JavaScript and/or the HTML DOM? This book is not for you.
Are you a novice who wants to learn to programme? This book is not for you. In fact, this language is not for you. Get a good Python book.
Quick JavaScript will get you programming in JavaScript as quickly as possible. In addition, it will provide you with a basic understanding of the Document Object Model, the massive data structure used to represent web pages. With these tools, you will be able to build interactive web pages.
If you programme in C++ or Java, there are parts of the book you can skip over because the JavaScript statements are exactly the same. These parts are clearly marked.
JavaScript is the language—the only language—used by browsers. To create interactive web pages, you need to know both JavaScript and the DOM. This book will get you started.

Quick Recursion
Recursion is the best tool for working with trees and graphs. But perhaps you’ve studied recursion and decided it’s too complicated. You just can’t think that way. That limits the kind of programming you can do. Good news! Recursion is actually easy. It’s just badly taught. See, many instructors talk about how the computer does it.
