About this title

Synopsis

How to Think Like a Programmer is a bright, accessible, fun read describing the mindset and mental methods of programmers. Anticipating the problems that student's have through the character of Brian the Wildebeest, the slower pace required for this approach is made interesting and engaging by visual impact of hand-drawn sketches, frequent (paper-based) interactivities and the everyday tasks (e.g. coffee making) used as the basis of worked examples.
