Book Review "Code Complete"

http://www.amazon.com/Code-Complete-Practical-Handbook-Construction/dp/0735619670/ref=pd_sim_b_img_2

I just finished reading this book. It was a very good read. I do not remember myself thinking "this is incorrect" or "this guy is nuts".

A  lot of very good analysis of what software construction is about. I have been programming for almost 30 years and the experience you acquire is difficult to transfer to younger programmers. Finally, all the ins and outs of good programming are here on these pages. I wish I had known about this book earlier. It would have saved me some time reading about what I just discovered by a lot of practice.

This book should be a required read for all college students that get started in the real world. Then, they should read it again after a year and see the light.

The only problem with this book is that the author refers to many other books that just sound too interesting for me to not read them too!

#$#@%%, I have to go spend more money on computer books (for a change)
