I too would favour Steve McConnell's _Code Complete_ over Jeff's blog-post collection but having read the book when it came out, i.e. not recently, I wasn't too keen overall, perhaps it was McConnell's Microsoft background. My preference is Kernighan and Pike's _The Practice of Programming_, TPoP, that's Kernighan as in the `k' in awk and K&R, and Pike as in Blit, sam, and now #golang. The book's home page has a sample chapter and a war story that didn't make it into the book. http://amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/020161586X/mqq-20 http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/tpop/ |
