As someone self-teaching their way into software engineering, would you be able to suggest any resources aside from Code Complete for these principles?

- blindhippo 13y agoRead: The Pragmatic Programmer by Andrew Hunt & David Thomas Code Complete 2 by Steve McConnell Clean Code by James O. Coplien Test Driven Development by Kent Beck (save this for last) These books will teach you how to think and approach coding in a way that will make Object Oriented programming simpler to comprehend. I can't suggest a book that explains basic OOP principals, hopefully some other much smarter person here can. I learned basic OOP through practice and through my education/class - but to be honest the basics are dead simple. It's only when you start getting into the very abstract that OOP starts to get really complicated and that's where the above books will help you.

- morkbot 13y agoTry "Clean Code" by Robert C. Martin. But also remember that there's no one proper way of doing these things, it's all heuristics, not laws written in stone.
