For those that are interested in translations, I have used Deepl to translate quite a few books from several languages such as Russian. For example, I translated the entire help file for the programming language PascalABC.Net and a book written in Greek for FreeBasic. It does a pretty good job of translating, maintaining hyperactive links and formatting code correctly .. although there is some minor formatting issues, like spacing, but none are 'show-stoppers'. For large amounts of text, Most translation services offer free translations with a limit, for larger translations, most if not all services are a paid service. I have found Deepl (paid service) to work well for my needs which is pay as you go.

Sorry we can't deliver the physical book to Hong Kong.
The alternative is to buy the Kindle edition.

With B4A now at 12.0, digital format is the way to go. Physical books can get out dated so quickly unfortunately.

We also produce digital versions of the book. It is due for an update in the near future.

I have the digital version. It’s easier to search through using a PDF viewer vs thumbing through a physical book

But I do like the tactility of a physical book.
