Books

A concise, illustrated guide to algorithms and data structures, perfect for coding interviews, classes, or self-study. Covers key concepts, from fundamentals to graphs, trees, sorting, and search techniques.

Discover what makes Racket more than just another programming language. Mastering Racket takes you from the fundamentals to macros, concurrency, web development and custom language design through practical, runnable examples. Learn to think in Racket and unlock the ideas that make it such a powerful tool for building software.

The chapter that grew into its own book: existential and universal restrictions, the correct VegetarianPizza pattern, and how OWL restrictions become EKA governance.

Programming Ideas is an extensive collection of fun and fascinating programming projects for intermediate to advanced programmers. It closes the gap between introductory programming books and computer science textbooks by showing you how to solve a wide range of practical problems, from drawing fractals to compressing files and computing Pi, and carefully explains both the required algorithms and techniques as well as the resulting programs.

Crack mobile coding interviews by mastering patterns instead of memorization. This book teaches you how to quickly recognize interview problems and solve them confidently using reusable Swift and Kotlin templates, exactly the way top iOS and Android candidates do. If you want to think clearly, code fast, and explain your solutions under pressure—this book is for you.

"Work in Progress" - Updated with the latest syntax, new CPAN modules and new file formats

Go beyond C++ syntax and learn to use the STL with confidence. Explore containers, algorithms, iterators, ranges and more through practical examples, performance insights and real-world patterns. Build a deeper understanding of how the STL works, when to use each tool and how to write cleaner, faster and more maintainable C++.

The Python interview guide written from the interviewer's side of the table. 35 chapters. Every benchmark measured. Every line of code verified. What senior engineers actually get asked — and what separates the ones who get the offer.

What really happens inside a database file? Learn to read binary data like a map, uncover hidden structures and turn raw bytes into a working understanding of how storage engines work. With hands-on examples from SQLite, PostgreSQL, InnoDB and more, this book shows you how to reverse engineer unfamiliar formats from the ground up.

JSON succeeded not because it was better--XML had schemas, namespaces, and 10 years of tooling, but because it understood modularity in ways XML never could. This book deconstructs how a deliberately incomplete format defeated a comprehensive standard, then shows you the production patterns (JSON Schema, JSONB, MessagePack, versioning strategies) that make JSON systems scale from prototype to billions of requests.

A practical interview reference covering Modern C++ language features, STL usage, concurrency, and performance (553 manuscript pages).

A book designed to help you transition from merely knowing Python to cracking Leetcode patterns. This book explains core DSA concepts through clear, intuitive analogies and walks you through the most important Leetcode patterns. If you're aiming to ace your next coding interview, this is the book I wish I had when I started.

Plain-language explanations, Java implementations, and step-by-step visual walkthroughs help you connect the problem, the code, and the changing state of the data. Every algorithm is printed in full color, so rows, columns, regions, and changing values stand apart at a glance and are easy to trace. 

Think. Implement. Solve. — Learn the logic. Write the code. Solve the problem.
