Which book is the "the Nine Yin Manual" in the field of programming

A few days ago, I investigated on official account “ What is the book that has the greatest impact on your own programming ”, The answer is basically not what I expected ：SICP、HTDP、 K & R C、Hackers and Painters Take the upper hand . Several others said it was teacher Tan 《C Language programming 》, Think carefully , It is also a must read book for beginners , It's not too much to say that it has the greatest impact .

I used to spend several years reading SICP, I read it about threeorfour times , Study every exercise carefully , The harvest is also quite fruitful , For various language phenomena （ recursive 、CPS、 Lazy evaluation 、 Non deterministic computation and flow processing ）、 compiler 、 We have a deep understanding of the computable row problem . But , Programming is not just a purely academic discipline , Or vice versa , It is an art that needs repeated practice to grow , And music 、 Equal status of Art .

The beautiful melody created by musicians , Colors and lines drawn by artists , Are the language they communicate with the world , For programmers, for , There is no doubt that code plays this role . therefore , When we comment on a programmer, we often say what software works he has , And I believe , Every programmer works tirelessly to write software with a large audience .

So , If you want me to recommend a book that has the greatest impact on me , I would recommend 《Coders at Work》.

As the title advertises , It does this by interviewing a series of programmers “ everyone ”, image Donald Knuth、Ken Thompson、Jamie Zawinski、Guy Steele、Peter Norvig etc. , Discuss these “ everyone ” Programming history of . Their memories are for those who are in the advanced stage coder It is extremely precious wealth , I think

Specific knowledge can be acquired in different ways , But it is often this kind of insightful memory and free talk , What we young programmers lack .

I have read more than half of this book , Feel very valuable , Recommended to you , I hope we can all become the ideal ourselves one day . Mutual encouragement .
