Book Description
There is no perfect code, whilst too many ways to write bad code. Even clean code will start to smell over time. The more the functionalities, the complexity and the number of different programmers working on it will make it smell. Healthy code requires incremental improvements, and reviews to stay that way. Would you also like to make more money as a programmer by being better at it? Discover the job-changing experience that you need. Sure enough, you might perform long searches on the web to try to put it all together. But why should you waste your time when you can have 15+ years of experience condensed into a single book?You can continue doing what you are doing. But let's be frank, you won't have read up to this point if you wanted it. You are here because you believe you can have a better career by being a good programmer. It's very tough to self-learn without the shared experience and guidance provided in this book. This book will walk through different approaches, reasoning why they are good or bad, as well as providing some clarifying examples (mainly Python). The book is broken down into different areas ranging from design and good coding practices to performances and security. A checklist ends all the chapters to help you during the code review process of your projects. Don't read this book...if: We are not here to talk about theoretical mumbo jumbo. We are going to talk about practical guidance. And it is our duty - as professionals - to code in the best possible way. Is it not?! This book might not be right for you if: If you are looking for an entire encyclopedia on data structures, software architectures, and any possible software engineering facets: this book is not for you. Certain concepts in the book are in pills: it provides just the core information that can assist you in doing better choices. This book is not made to impress you, it is made to help you out. To be handy and on point. It is not a Python programming book. Nor a programming book per se either. It is meant to help in writing better code by looking at it from several angles. This book is not boring. If you are looking for endless mechanical chapters, wrong choice. Let's add some fun, life is too short. If your heart as a programmer is too sensible on how bad code can be, please stop. I care about you, seriously. Or at least, read with caution, don't stress too much: there are other wonderful things in the world! And if you get upset identifying bad things that you did... no worries every single programmer on earth has been there! This book is right for you...if: This book is aimed at people with at least some experience with programming in some sort of language: C, C++, Java, Python. It could be easier for Object Oriented programming cowboys and cowgirls to go through the book, but a lot of concepts discussed in the book are general enough to be the foundations of good coding. Some more advanced chapters - like concurrency and security - might require some more focus to make your own if you are fairly new to them. But, no worries, keep going, it will be rewarding and it will give you the right tools to be at the top of your game. Hence, this book is for: Passionate programmers willing to go the extra mile and be better at their jobs. You will be happier, better paid and with an easier life. People who just started to program: this book will power up your programming skills. It will avoid you all the avoidable errors. Software engineers of all kinds. Knowing a programming language is not enough to be good at it. And I am sure you are or you will be a really good one. More experienced IT people in search of a quick guide on how to review code. But at the end of the day, I hope you'll enjoy it!

The Missing README
Author: Chris Riccomini
Publisher: No Starch Press
ISBN: 1718501846
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Key concepts and best practices for new software engineers — stuff critical to your workplace success that you weren’t taught in school. For new software engineers, knowing how to program is only half the battle. You’ll quickly find that many of the skills and processes key to your success are not taught in any school or bootcamp. The Missing README fills in that gap—a distillation of workplace lessons, best practices, and engineering fundamentals that the authors have taught rookie developers at top companies for more than a decade. Early chapters explain what to expect when you begin your career at a company. The book’s middle section expands your technical education, teaching you how to work with existing codebases, address and prevent technical debt, write production-grade software, manage dependencies, test effectively, do code reviews, safely deploy software, design evolvable architectures, and handle incidents when you’re on-call. Additional chapters cover planning and interpersonal skills such as Agile planning, working effectively with your manager, and growing to senior levels and beyond. You’ll learn: How to use the legacy code change algorithm, and leave code cleaner than you found it How to write operable code with logging, metrics, configuration, and defensive programming How to write deterministic tests, submit code reviews, and give feedback on other people’s code The technical design process, including experiments, problem definition, documentation, and collaboration What to do when you are on-call, and how to navigate production incidents Architectural techniques that make code change easier Agile development practices like sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives This is the book your tech lead wishes every new engineer would read before they start. By the end, you’ll know what it takes to transition into the workplace–from CS classes or bootcamps to professional software engineering.

C++ Coding Standards
Author: Herb Sutter
Publisher: Pearson Education
ISBN: 0132654423
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 489
Book Description
Consistent, high-quality coding standards improve software quality, reduce time-to-market, promote teamwork, eliminate time wasted on inconsequential matters, and simplify maintenance. Now, two of the world's most respected C++ experts distill the rich collective experience of the global C++ community into a set of coding standards that every developer and development team can understand and use as a basis for their own coding standards. The authors cover virtually every facet of C++ programming: design and coding style, functions, operators, class design, inheritance, construction/destruction, copying, assignment, namespaces, modules, templates, genericity, exceptions, STL containers and algorithms, and more. Each standard is described concisely, with practical examples. From type definition to error handling, this book presents C++ best practices, including some that have only recently been identified and standardized-techniques you may not know even if you've used C++ for years. Along the way, you'll find answers to questions like What's worth standardizing--and what isn't? What are the best ways to code for scalability? What are the elements of a rational error handling policy? How (and why) do you avoid unnecessary initialization, cyclic, and definitional dependencies? When (and how) should you use static and dynamic polymorphism together? How do you practice "safe" overriding? When should you provide a no-fail swap? Why and how should you prevent exceptions from propagating across module boundaries? Why shouldn't you write namespace declarations or directives in a header file? Why should you use STL vector and string instead of arrays? How do you choose the right STL search or sort algorithm? What rules should you follow to ensure type-safe code? Whether you're working alone or with others, C++ Coding Standards will help you write cleaner code--and write it faster, with fewer hassles and less frustration.

Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 621
Book Description
How do the experts solve difficult problems in software development? In this unique and insightful book, leading computer scientists offer case studies that reveal how they found unusual, carefully designed solutions to high-profile projects. You will be able to look over the shoulder of major coding and design experts to see problems through their eyes. This is not simply another design patterns book, or another software engineering treatise on the right and wrong way to do things. The authors think aloud as they work through their project's architecture, the tradeoffs made in its construction, and when it was important to break rules. This book contains 33 chapters contributed by Brian Kernighan, KarlFogel, Jon Bentley, Tim Bray, Elliotte Rusty Harold, Michael Feathers,Alberto Savoia, Charles Petzold, Douglas Crockford, Henry S. Warren,Jr., Ashish Gulhati, Lincoln Stein, Jim Kent, Jack Dongarra and PiotrLuszczek, Adam Kolawa, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Diomidis Spinellis, AndrewKuchling, Travis E. Oliphant, Ronald Mak, Rogerio Atem de Carvalho andRafael Monnerat, Bryan Cantrill, Jeff Dean and Sanjay Ghemawat, SimonPeyton Jones, Kent Dybvig, William Otte and Douglas C. Schmidt, AndrewPatzer, Andreas Zeller, Yukihiro Matsumoto, Arun Mehta, TV Raman,Laura Wingerd and Christopher Seiwald, and Brian Hayes.

ISBN: 0137909292
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 563
Book Description
The classic guide to how computers work, updated with new chapters and interactive graphics "For me, Code was a revelation. It was the first book about programming that spoke to me. It started with a story, and it built up, layer by layer, analogy by analogy, until I understood not just the Code, but the System. Code is a book that is as much about Systems Thinking and abstractions as it is about code and programming. Code teaches us how many unseen layers there are between the computer systems that we as users look at every day and the magical silicon rocks that we infused with lightning and taught to think." - Scott Hanselman, Partner Program Director, Microsoft, and host of Hanselminutes Computers are everywhere, most obviously in our laptops and smartphones, but also our cars, televisions, microwave ovens, alarm clocks, robot vacuum cleaners, and other smart appliances. Have you ever wondered what goes on inside these devices to make our lives easier but occasionally more infuriating? For more than 20 years, readers have delighted in Charles Petzold's illuminating story of the secret inner life of computers, and now he has revised it for this new age of computing. Cleverly illustrated and easy to understand, this is the book that cracks the mystery. You'll discover what flashlights, black cats, seesaws, and the ride of Paul Revere can teach you about computing, and how human ingenuity and our compulsion to communicate have shaped every electronic device we use. This new expanded edition explores more deeply the bit-by-bit and gate-by-gate construction of the heart of every smart device, the central processing unit that combines the simplest of basic operations to perform the most complex of feats. Petzold's companion website, CodeHiddenLanguage.com, uses animated graphics of key circuits in the book to make computers even easier to comprehend. In addition to substantially revised and updated content, new chapters include: Chapter 18: Let's Build a Clock! Chapter 21: The Arithmetic Logic Unit Chapter 22: Registers and Busses Chapter 23: CPU Control Signals Chapter 24: Jumps, Loops, and Calls Chapter 28: The World Brain From the simple ticking of clocks to the worldwide hum of the internet, Code reveals the essence of the digital revolution.
