4.0 out of 5 stars A good reference on clean programming style, April 21, 1997

By A Customer

Ever read someone else's code and wondered what the heck they were doing? (Or had someone look at your own and wonder the same thing?) Then you should be reading this book, it covers all those questions you've been wanting to ask someone, but didn't. The author is not just technically compentent, but is one of those rare programmers who can write as well.

I have used it as my style guide, in concert with with my own style notes, for several years. Sensible recommendations, easy to read, and some good insights to help write better code.
