Itt: comfy tech books

Post here your book tech recommendations, the ones that don't treat the reader like a fucking moron by wasting a full chapter explaining for the nth time what an integer is.

Books that get to the point, no bullshit.

Comfy choice. I would recommend this after reading K&R. It's a longer book but it uses K&R as a primary source and builds off of it. Lots of examples and more rigorous than K&R, especially regarding casts and pointers. Well written too.

fwiw, I've found Flask's reputation as the hobbyist's backend framework to be well deserved. This book is a really good intro to Flask and backend programming in general. Really easy to get started and basically unlimited freedom.

I don't think it's here, but there's a ton of other shit worth reading that is. Enjoy.

Java: The complete reference for Java.

this? iiti.ac.in/people/~tanimad/JavaTheCompleteReference.pdf

I have that book too user, it's great, it's very clear, straight to the point and I love it.

I actually preferred this to K&R. The basic concepts are broken down much more thoroughly, making the learning curve much more gradual.

Thinking in Java

Agreed. More exercises too

Comfiest book and language imo

What is the big difference with C Primer Plus from Stephen Prata?
C Primer Plus seems very similar, the big difference seems to be the standard library reference.
>you get the same knowledge as long as you are not a dumb shit
Yeah sure buddy, this book is so old it does not even talk of VLA and other recent change in the standard. It's way better to understand what is useful if you are dealing with modern C code.

Ok from what I understand there are also "review questions" only from Prata's book, I really like them.

What makes it hobbyist

yeah i know the language is a cluster fuck to learn and people dislike it, but its here to stay for a bit and this book makes it seem/sound very interesting - unlike the myriad of shitty youtube videos on it

I think a very apt question for this book is: why it even exists ?
Do you really need a whole book to learn Flask ?
I thought it was pretty self explanatory combination of js/css/html and small amount of python

Hate JavaScript but I'm forced to work with it. These books are a breath of fresh air.

It's unopinionated about your file structure. It's extremely lightweight and depends heavily on extensions. It doesn't come with its own ORM, admin suite, no fancy GUIs. It's the exact opposite of Django which is extremely opinionated and generally reserved for larger, team-oriented projects. With Flask you can whip stuff up in no time. Also, microservices.

why do you hate JS ?
i personally find it has way to many fucking abstractions but other then thats its pretty cool lang

its free on libgen or if you know how to use a search engine

pdf != print

icube-icps.unistra.fr/img_auth.php/d/db/ModernC.pdf
is a better modern reference

why would you ever bother with printed books ?
what are you some faggot who likes to hold it in his hands and then shove it up his ass ?
read an e-book like any normal person and reduce the clutter in your life

I'm not that user, but reading an LCD screen for a long period of time strains eyes much faster.

I can't imagine anyone being this moronic.

I cant imagine someone being such a low iq retard he needs to look at a phsical book

is this any good?

this book sucks. maybe it was useful in the 80's when you were working on a Unix machine but its woefully inadequate in 2019. C has to be explained in the context of how it interacts with the OS (or bare metal).

So no jobs doing flash stuff? :(

What do you exactly learn from this book? I am kind of a brainlet, so when I read the synopsis, I didn't really understand what it meant.

>tfw too much of a brainlet to read CLRS.
I wish my math wasn't so shit, and it will take me ages to learn all the required math to read this book.

Read Book of Proof

It's a collection of low-level optimization tricks, and various other things you won't find anywhere else. Not even online.

thanks a lot dude

different user here, what e-reader would you recommend
im seriously considering this now

Readable and applicable if you're a game dev.
