All:
I assume most of you read Slashdot, but thought this particular post/entry to be particularly worthy of interest.
Review on the book, "The Nature of Code"
http://books.slashdot.org/story/13/01/09/160246/book-review-the-nature-of-codeand the actual website/book -
The Nature of Code
http://natureofcode.com/How can we capture the unpredictable evolutionary and emergent
properties of nature in software? How can understanding the mathematical
principles behind our physical world help us to create digital worlds?
This book focuses on the programming strategies and techniques behind
computer simulations of natural systems using Processing.
Looks interesting. I plan to do the suggested donation of $10 to download the book.
FYI,
Charlie
