You've somehow finagled your way into a job programming C/C++ on Linux/UNIX. It's been N years since play C programs in college, filled with Java, Visual C++, and such. Will you last in the new job? With this book, yes! gcc, gdb, make, and gprof: learn the really important basics right here. (Do yourself a HUGE favor and switch to Emacs while you're at it.) RCS has been supplanted by CVS, so that part could use an update. An absolute must have. Basics are basic, but you need them, and online manuals that cover (say) the entire Emacs or gdb toolsets aren't the best place to learn. |
