    I’m following the 3rd Edition page by page (part of Raspberry OS download for my RPi 3B) and LOVE it! I found a typo on page 60 of that guide; hopefully it is corrected in the 4th Edition. Guides like this make coding and networking extremely fun and engaging!

      Hi, Kevin. Glad you’re enjoying the book! If you let me know what typo you’ve found, I can flag it up with my editor – and if it hasn’t been caught in the 4th Edition, we’ll get it corrected for the download and future reprints.
