Friday, 25 February 2022

This book, subtitled "The rules to break and how to break them", looks at how computer science theory quickly collides with the harsh reality of professional software development. in this smart and funny beginner's guide, Sedat Kapanoglu shows you how to get the job done by prioritizing tasks, making quick decisions, and knowing which rules to break. This is a programmer's survival guide, full of tips, tricks, and hacks that will make you a more efficient programmer. It takes the best practices you learn in a computer science class and deconstructs them to show when they’re beneficial—and when they aren't!
