Sooooo worth it

3 years ago

I love this book. That is a hard statement to say from a critic like me at times. I have read tons of programming books and this one is my favorite. I really wish there was an additional code complete book by Steve Mcconnell that I could buy as soon as it was printed. It provides great code examples, in depth solutions to coding problems, shows how to improve quality of everything from classes to if statements to how you can write better comments. Fabulous book. I highly recommend it.
