Review # 2 was written on 2012-12-31 00:00:00 Peter Speerin (4.0) Full on geek out, probably only helpful if you're writing assembly or compilers or something I've not often (if ever?) read a book straight through in one setting, but that happened to me last night (to my wife's great disapproval). It's a tour of clever ways to accomplish all sorts of computation as efficiently as possible (primarily by avoiding any branch statements, the vermin!). I'm not sure I'll ever apply any of these, but I did enjoy the clever mathiness of a state machine implemented without branches. And then we went to real nerd-town with considering binary representations of numbers using -2 or even -1 + i as the base. No sign bit! No two ints to represent a single complex number! So this was entertaining, I'll probably never need any of these tricks, but if I do, I know exactly where to turn. :)
