9780735605053: Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software

Synopsis

From the dots and dashes of Morse code to the 0s and 1s of computer programming, ""Code"" describes the ingenious ways humans have adapted language systems -- code -- to invent the machinery of the modern age. By examining the dialogues we developed for and through the communication tools of the industrial revolution, readers discover they have a context for comprehending today's world of computers, bar code scanners, and fiber optics. The work of legendary computer book author Charles Petzold has influenced an entire generation of programmers -- and with ""Code"", Microsoft Press is proud to bring this extraordinary writer's compelling narrative style and wit to a general audience.
