how about you kill yourself and stop talking about this faggot shit that has literally nothing to do with technology.
much better idea

I like Algorithms in C more desu, it's practical

K&R is outdated, hard to read, and teaches bad practices.

No this isn't bait. It's shit by modern standards.

Pic related if you want to intimately understand how software works. It can be a tough read though, definitely not for beginners.

>>59736426
It's still the best resource for learning C.

>>59736549
I learnt from C Programming: A Modern Approach which is written with clarity in mind.

That can't be right.

My apologies, I didn't realize I was talking to a modern code-artisan. You're absolutely right, why would anyone read a manual written by the inventor when they could buy a 100 dollar textbook written by some professor.

>>59733908
why no SICP?

>>59733908
This book sometimes is much better than online C resources

>>59736686
>why would anyone read a manual written by the inventor when they could buy a 100 dollar textbook written by some professor.
I haven't read the book in question, and you may well be right in this case, but asserting that the person who made something is always the best person to document it is bullshit.

>>59736517
How so? What does it talk about?

"How software works" doesn't mean much to me, since it could refer to anything from EE-tier "how your program becomes machine code and how this code is executed by the logic gates on the ALU" to meme-tier software design approaches.

>>59737231
that's because it is. Just make sure you read a book such as Secure Coding in C and C++ afterward.

currently grinding through this book before i begin SICP

>>59736426
It's not hard to read at all( it has around 270 pages), you need just to put more effort into it.Even Bjarne Stroustrup admited in a interview that K&r c is one of his favorite cs books.I think a lot of professionals who jump in learning C they don't know what to expect from a small 270p terse book so after they get impeded in the details of the book they search for other resources for learning c and qualify K&r as being 'hard to read' and unuseful
>>59737007
SICP is God-Tier.

reading pic related right now. Man, I studied psychology as an undergrad, and now I'm realizing I really should have done Math/Physics/Electronic Engineering. Not because of money issues, it's just that I really enjoy all these math-filled theories. Psychology is just a big sack of bullshit.

>Man, I studied psychology as an undergrad, and now I'm realizing [...] psychology is just a big sack of bullshit.
Nice. But did you really think everyone was being ironic when they were saying it's a meme degree?

>>59740972
lol I don't know, I just wasn't exposed to a lot of science subjects in middle school and high-school. I was always more into humanistic stuff, history and literature and all that.

Whatever, nothing I can do now, except study as much as I can in my spare time.

>>59741017
Fair enough. Well enjoy, sounds like you have a lot of interesting things to learn.

What's the equivilent of 'The C programming language" for cpp, I'm currently going through "a tour of cpp" but not liking it as much

isn't the actual equivalent book thousands of pages?

>>59733908
What is the C++ version of this book?

What about "The C++ Programming Language"

Is it good or is it a meme?

Trying to get through SCIP it's pretty tough especially doing all the exercises. I skipped through some at the start but at some point it's the only way you'll understand. Currently on exercise 1.9 where you have to count all the possible combinations of change for a dollar.

Also reading Beautiful Code which was recommended by a friend.

I don't believe there's a single human bean who read all of those books

>>59736517
Just got this and it's pretty cool. Are there anymore recommendations like it or any books similar to this one?

It's possible for a typical grad student to read that much since half the book will be review usually and can be skipped once you get to that level. An average of 300 papers per month too on top of books is what a typical grad will do.

>>59733908
Of this list https://functionalcs.github.io/curriculum/ the free draft from http://www.parallel-algorithms-book.com/ is really good.

There's a sequel for it PAPL
http://papl.cs.brown.edu/2016/

Both teach a typed discipline of programming so they make sense. PAPL uses Pyret some weird Racket DSL w/Python syntax. The orig sequel is PLAI still done in Racket but being subsumbed by PAPL https://cs.brown.edu/courses/cs173/2012/book/index.html

One of this guy's books http://www.aristeia.com/books.html I learned from Effective C++ it's still relevant

>>59746296
>An average of 300 papers per month
So that's the reason why they seem to know everything but can't really apply any of it

>>59746422
I have effective C++, do you think its actually a good intro to cpp if I already know C?

it looked more like something that you read if you already 'know' cpp

>>59736517
it looks like a typical intro to cs, but the pick of the topics is kinda odd

>>59746462
There's also this stanford course
http://web.stanford.edu/class/cs106l/

Click on 'Course Reader' its a 522 page pdf on how to program in C++ http://web.stanford.edu/class/cs106l/handouts/full_course_reader.pdf

Use libgen.io to grab all of >>59746422 books and skim through them to see if you want to read them, then buy a copy if you want (save your eyes from staring at shitty fonts)

I just bought this book in January, at the start of the semester.

I want to do all the problems in the book, but with all the projects assigned from this class, plus all my other classes, I haven't had time.

I know I need to do them. My programming style is atrocious, though it's good enough to complete the assignments and get an A.

I'll tackle them during summer break.

This is the correct way.

favorite book for Java?

>>59746865
java by dietel? That's the one my school used but I honestly hated it. Turns out my friend's uni in canada used the C++ version

>An average of 300 papers per month too on top of books is what a typical grad will do.
confirmed never worked with a grad student

Does anyone has some recomendations for robotic books or low level oriented software?

Kernel, compilers, microcontrollers, etc...

pic related is pretty good for learning Python, and that guy has a bunch of really cool, more advanced books on Digital Signal Processing, Bayesian stats, regular stats, complexity and other stuff. All free on genesis lib
