Version 1.7: Minor fixes and the future

Hello there! Over the last few months I’ve collected a few reports of typos and other small issues. So I decided it was time to put out a small update. Here’s the change log:

  • Chapter 1: Fix broken Discord link
  • Chapter 5.1.3: Typo fix
  • Chapter 9.7: rand.int_max range clarification
  • Chapter 14.3: Improved ‘Special_Array’ example
  • Chapter 23: Typo fix
  • Chapter 26.6: Fix broken WebGPU example link
  • Appendix D: Fix compilation error

Re-download the book to get the latest version. The new version says “Version 1.7” just under the main title.

Regarding the future of this book: I’ll keep it up-to-date the best I can. If something changes in Odin, then I’ll do my best to update the book. The biggest upcoming Odin change is that core:os is going to be replaced by by os2 (which you can try already, a preview is available under core:os/os2). At that point I’ll surely do another update!

Thanks for buying my book! If you want to keep up-to-date with what I’m up to, then have a look at my newsletter: https://news.zylinski.se/

Have a nice day! /Karl
