in thread How would you solve a user-inputted simple one-variable Linear Equation

I just wanted to let people know it wasn't the one-chapter teaser that you often get from publishers, e.g., O'Reilly.

I agree that HOP is that rarest of creatures, a CS book that's a good read. BTW, congratulations if you got through the whole thing on-line; I have the electronic version for quick reference, but I'm of the generation that needs deadwood for comfortable, concentrated study. (Update: And I've still got my slide-rule! And you kids get off my lawn!)

    No, I was not able to read the whole book on line, only perhaps the 5 first chapters, but then I too often had to refer back to previous passages, this was getting uncomfortable, that's why I bought the paper edition. (And I've also got my slide-rule.)
