Oh really? I have access to Safari. Thanks.
Still though, I think later this week I will buy a copy. I like your blog too, and after years of intro level courses of different types (currently watched my eyes water over when redoing insertion sort in Scala with Odersky in his Scala class in Coursera doing pattern matching and functional decomposition), perhaps all I really need is a picture book.
Out of curiosity, as a busy (what seems to be from your blog and GH profile) Etsy engineer, how did you get into writing such books?
I am very newbish but I love the quality content coming out of non-traditional non-academics on better CS instruction. What makes you tick, egonschiele?
- egonschiele 10y agoThanks, that's very nice of you to say. I wrote the book because I didn't find an easy-to-read book on algorithms, and it took me a long time to learn. I think teaching hard concepts in a clear way is very important, so that's what I try to do with my book and blog.
- 616c 10y agoTell me about it. I think picture books for programming. Animated turtles all the way down!
