How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

Absolutely brilliant, i have been learning C# and have done some video courses and then brought this book. The book goes into detail whichbis brilliant for me. It explains things very well and gives you an idea of when theybwere implemented which add to the experience so you identify how new a feature is.Online courses are good but this book showed me loads of new things that wernt taught the author gives his opinion on somethings also if some techniques are not used often or if theybare frowned upon.It has a good practices section under each topic which tells younwhat you should do.I really like this book it has the detail you would want while teaching the content quickly.It gives reference links for further reading whichbos handy.

I'm an very experienced C# and .NET engineer and picked up this book to get up to speed on the latest updates to the language and the platform. I found the book easy to navigate. The first few chapters cover the basics. The later chapters do a great job of covering the C# 8 and latest .NET Core features. Mark does an excellent job showing the new features and the why & how to you want to use the latest stuff.

I am currently halfway through the book (it is a lot!)No nonsense, straight to topic textbook.It is packed with information and gives you an excellent guideline to learn all you need to know about C# 8.0 and .NET Core 3.0 and how to use it to develop apps.The title is very very long but its really all in there.You might need a very basic understanding of "C#/programming in general" to not feel overwhelmed by its pace, BUT Everything you need to know IS covered.

I just took a look at the preview version of the book C# 8.0 and .NET Core 3.0 — Modern Cross-Platform Development and I found it really impressive, covering almost everything in .NET Core 3.0 and focused on what is really important to know. Written by Mark J. Price, the entire book, with more than 800 pages, contains basic and advanced content, covering all the existent features on .NET Core.I did like the way that the author explored the history of .NET, explaining the differences between .NET Framework and .NET Core. Also, it has tons of examples on how we can migrate our projects to the newest version of .NET Core. That represents a good challenge, mainly in big and complex projects, and the book is really useful to understand the pros and cons of keeping our projects in .NET Framework or migrating it to a newer version.For creating powerful applications using .NET Core, with high performance and world-class quality, it is mandatory to understand entirely what .NET Core offers to you and to understand with details how you can integrate different resources and features of .NET Core in multiples solutions. I think the book meets its objective perfectly.I have really enjoyed the book.I would like to highly recommend this book to everyone who wants to learn C# .NET Core. Very well-drafted book with lots of insights and definitely the best one.
