  1. Underhållande!
    Petter Gullin (Klintehamn), 4 september 2017

    Har den som kurslitteratur på universitetet. Mycket lättläst och går igenom allt grundläggande och bygger upp nivån stegvis på ett bra sätt!

  2. Bra för nybörjaren.
    Beelz, 23 augusti 2015

    Går igenom väldigt grundläggande hur datorn faktiskt arbetar, men om du letar efter något mer avancerat så skulle jag inte rekommendera den här. Jättebra för dig som vill veta mer om hur programmering faktiskt går till i datorns "hjärna", så att säga.

    This book should be a 101 textbook to all the schools that teach programming or computers generally. It helps a lot to understand how did we actually come up with the computer architecture that we have. From the very basic ideas of Morse Code and telegraph to the programs that run on computers. Suddenly you realize it all starts to make sense. It is not a piece of cake to understand so you might end up reading a paragraph for several times but the feeling that comes with the understanding is totally worth reading it.
