Blew my mind when I found out.

- jjice 2y agoI'm not familiar with this book. Anything particular about it that would cause infamy?
- jdmoreira 2y agoat least in my circles it was considered way inferior to K&R. I read both and enjoyed both for totally different reasons. But some Portuguese might remember "Samad" a mock person used in some of the examples. Which of course is "Damas" spelled backwards.
