COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS EVERY PROGRAMMER SHOULD KNOW.
Computers are monsters because they think different than us. The book provides a creative overview of the most useful coding concepts. You don't need to be a math wizard to understand these ideas.
We will learn:
- What the monsters look like.
- How you can prevent the 125 million dollar mistake that caused the NASA Climate Orbitor to crash, and how Tony Hoare made a billion dollar mistake.
- How do emojis, text, and everything else in your computer work by interpreting numbers differently?
- Where and how are numbers stored and accessed?
- How can we stop thinking about numbers by using abstraction?
