[seriousousous] Good, beginners book for experts

[baja_yu]

Have anyone of you guys read any good books on VB.Net, C# and/or ASP.Net?

What I'm looking for is an advanced book for general topics. I heave years of experience and I don't need lessons on OOP concepts, datatypes, basic constructs and flow control.

Basically I need something to learn the syntax. I don't need explanations, for example, of what For loops are, what they do, how they are used and stuff like that. Saying: This is a for loop in C#:

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {

}

is enough for me.

Just found this http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vcsharp/aa336766.aspx
I'll go through that too. Any other recommendations are welcome.

EDIT: This looks promising http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/67ef8sbd.aspx Is there a way to download articles from the library?! Not sure why but I prefer offline contents more. Apple provides nice links for each article to download it as a PDF. I'm willing to accept .doc Mr Ballmer.

Search for an appropriate book that'll satisfy your needs (use Google books and other websites) and then search for it's pdf version. I'm sure, there'll be a free pdf version for most of the books out there
