Is ANSYS APDL - New Book Out a must-have for serious analysts?

In summary, the conversation is about a new APDL book that has been released and two individuals, Matt and the original poster, have purchased and read it. They both agree that it is a good resource for understanding APDL and recommend it to anyone looking to become a serious analyst. However, Matt notes that the book may be more beneficial for those who have been working with ANSYS for a while. Despite finding a few typos, both individuals have learned new information from the book.

I got my copy this past Friday. Not too bad, just a couple of typos I found so far. Really good resource but you need to have been working with ANSYS for a while to get the full benefit. I have been an analyst for years so most of the book was review of material I have used many times over. However, I did learn some new stuff from the book.

I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to understand APDL and if you want to become a serious analyst you will learn APDL one way or another. The life you save my be your own.

Thanks
Matt
