What do topics ranging from organic chemistry to Napoleon's campaigns have to
do with computer programming? This collection of essays demonstrates the many
varied aspects of programming, showing how programming can be both a fun and elegant
science.
Some of the essays cover programming techniques, like how profilers can provide
insight into the dynamic behavior of programs, and methods for making data files
self-describing. These techniques deal with real programs and they are realistically
illustrated, using the C and Awk languages. Bentley also provides the reader
with some tricks of the programmer's trade, like a collection of rules of thumb
and hints for finding simple solutions to hard problems.
These essays also originally appeared in the author's column in Communication
of the ACM, and have been substantially revised, incorporating new sections,
problems, and reader comments.
