Who this book is for

While the reader is not expected to be an advanced programmer, this book does assume some base-level knowledge of C# and scripting in Unity. That said, the sample code provided is well commented and explained throughout the book in a very detailed way, in order to describe the reason behind each decision and every line of code. Familiarity with some of the algorithms provided is certainly helpful, but by no means required. This book will explain the theory and origin of the concepts and then delve into implementations that highlight the core functionality we're looking for. Extraneous code is kept to a minimum to allow the reader to truly focus on the book's main objective—learning AI game programming in Unity.
