Hi !
I would like to create a list of the major texts in programming which influenced lots of people and were relevant back then, are relevant now and will be in the next 20 years. It shouldn't be books as I see it but articles, short texts, essays(maybe books of articles, like "97 Things Every Programmer Should Know") What I came up by now is this:
"Go To Statement considered harmful" - by E. W. Dijkstra
"Can Programming Be Liberated from the von Neumann Style? A Functional Style and Its Algebra of Programs" - by J.Backus
"No Silver Bullet - Essence and Accident in Software Engineering" - by Frederick P. Brooks, Jr.
"Out of the Tar Pit" - by Ben Moseley and Peter Marks
"The roots of LISP" - by Paul Graham Please, help me fill this list if you know any good articles like this(maybe from ACM or other magazine, maybe from some random blog) I created a repo for this, feel free to make a pull request: https://github.com/reflechant/major_programming_articles |
