Travelling

Hey /lit/ I'm going to be travelling in the next few days. I'm going to be loading a book or two on my Navi. What should read? I have 5 days and alot of plane time. I'm considering trying to blast through SCIP.

does it have to be technical? If you want a novel then i highly reccomend Ready Player One if your interested in VR and Little Brother if your interested in modern day Cyb. you can also learn OPSEC from Little Brother.

>>1663 Doesn't have to be technical. Although it would be a good chance for me to get through a technical book. I read Little Brother and it was an amazing book. I might read the sequel, Homeland actually. Also, I need to learn C, any recommendations for that?

>>1664 I just started reading scip today during down time at work and im loving it. I f you want to learn C I would say either the manual or learn c the hard way.

Please don't just blast through SICP. Take your time to carefully study it and do the exercises too.

>>1666 im >>1665 and i just finished the first section today. had to put it down so i could focus on the exercises when I got home. I have been studying programming for a year or so now and I would say im fairly proficient in ruby/php/python for easy web scripting stuff but sicp is a whole nother level. Im having to go back and read things from the first 20 pages to get a grasp of interpreters, though the rest of it was a breeze from learning control flow with other languages. I would also recommend something a bit lest information dense like head start programming or python or even why's guide(its the most fun you will have with a programming manual!)

>>1664 >little brother you wouldnt happen to have a hot tip regarding where i could find the audiobook in english would you?

>>1671 Wow. Just a couple days ago I was wondering whether I should delete it off my desktop or not because It's been sitting their a while. Here you go Lainon https://mega.nz/#F!oMhynQoI!dGV2SahrBc_yCWd4KNvAug

>>1672 Awesome, thanks!

>>1672 ayy lmao i wasnt expecting that to work thank you :)

>>1662 If you like fantasy, I'm reading the Witcher books, and I'm not finding them too bad.

> What should read? Crikey. Whatever you want to read. Surely there's something on your mind regarding that?
