Ben Klemens about his '21st Century C' book
- rainysunday 14y agoSubmitted for the mock-up cover alone. Previous discussion here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4794171 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4794171 His other book, Modeling with data, is also freely available as a pdf: http://modelingwithdata.org/about_the_book.html http://modelingwithdata.org/about_the_book.html
- anonymouz 14y agoGreat to see a book about C that includes insights and best practices the community at large has found since the more traditional textbooks were published. I may pick up the ebook version for a rainy weekend. The title makes me cringe though. It inevitably evokes a picture of a poor sod writing a book on "20th century warfare" in 1912.
