The book club is back!
First chapter introduces the UNIX operating system and some of its principles, like the standard input/output, “everything is a file” and “tools that do one thing and do it well” mantras. The chapter also introduces abstraction and how it is achieved via APIs. Second chapter is about binary representation of data. How it is stored as zeroes and ones, what operations are performed on them and how they combine into compound data. |
