the best computer book I ever got was some oddball thing published in the 80s called "the magic machine" that taught you how to be a "mathemagician" it went through all kinds of programs to generate fractals and poo poo.

every fucker in here posting their university textbooks needs to branch out. Oh yeah, I TOTALLY enjoyed the operating systems dinosaur book, unlike everyone else in my class who skimmed it and just read the loving lecture slides, I found the dense info dumps and characteristically disorganized committee writing fascinating. I'm smart and def have read a book since graduation.

carry on then posted:joke answer Hell yes. I love reading a sequential detailing of the canonical algorithms they drum into you at school. Almost as good as my other favourite book "Mathematics 2C: Foundations". Definitely a personal favourite of mine, great for fireside reading.
