I have been asked to learn how to program in IDL for the PC.
How do I begin to do this. I am currently a C programmer and
am unsure where to begin. Is there a good book that you guys
could recomment? What would be my best course of action?

Any advice would be grately appreciated

Thanks,
David

We purchased the book directly from RSI. It does not have an ISBN,
therefore I don't think you will find it in your local bookstore!
