Thinking in Patterns: Download the First Version

Posted by jamie on from the thought-provocation dept.

RichMeraz writes "Bruce Eckel has posted his first incarnation of Thinking in Patterns with Python on his website. What a wonderful Christmas present." Make sure to check the list of mirrors before downloading. As Eckel says, "This should whet your appetite to read Design Patterns " (or reread it)... classic book, I figure it can't hurt to refresh my memory once a year, and holidays seem like a good time to think in the abstract...

  1. Don't forget to buy a copy too by 2Bits · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Bruce Eckel has put his very well written books for download. That's very nice of him. For those of you who can afford, don't forget to buy a copy too, just to show your support/appreciation. I've bought a copy of "Thinking in Java", even though I've never opened the hard copy book. I end up giving it to my brother-in-law.
