  1. Re:License on Book Review: The Nature of Code · · Score: 1

    The code examples in the book are MIT License. It's only that you can't make money from reselling the book *text* itself. You can use all of the knowledge and source code in anything you like, commercial or otherwise.

  2. Re:Pay what you want on Book Review: The Nature of Code · · Score: 2

    Thanks, this feedback is exactly why I wanted to try pay what you want!

  3. Re:Tex and ASCIIDOC on Book Review: The Nature of Code · · Score: 3, Interesting

    ASCIIDOC was a somewhat arbitrary choice. The goal for this project was to be able to easily generate the book in a variety of formats. Since ASCIIDOC can parse into HTML rather easily, I was then able to generate a web version of the book, a PDF for print, and ultimately I hope to be able to generate ePub and Mobi as well. LateX is a fantastic tool as well.

  4. Re: Exercises on Book Review: The Nature of Code · · Score: 1

    The answers to the exercises are included in the github repo. As of now I probably only have 50% but I'm adding in the rest as fast as possible.
