There is a wonderful new trend in which more and more people are curious about how technologies actually function. To keep up with this trend, new type of books on programming are emerging, one that is colourful, fun, and easy to read with pictures, emojis, comics, and other entertaining elements.
Intelligence is now considered sexy, and it’s a fact. No longer will we ridicule the nerds who see the Internet as the future. Even in the current time, people are curious about the Internet. After all, who do you think will survive if AI enslaves the human race in the near future? Yes, I think we’re dependent on programmers to save us.
Have you been chuckling while perusing a computer book recently?
Books on programming #1
Grokking Algorithms: An Illustrated Guide for Programmers and Other Curious People
The phrase “illustrated” only gives me the idea that I will love this book in the long run. I value the writers’ approach of including humorous visuals and graphics to help visually orient their readers. In addition to entertaining graphics, the book offers entertaining examples and even exercises that are uploaded on GitHub. To engage in a deep dive, I suggest you tackle those challenges in your preferred language. This tiny book about algorithms will be an entertaining read if you’re just looking for something to do.

Code: The Hidden Language of Computer Hardware and Software
I remember how much I enjoyed reading this book with my parents when I was in middle school. I’m reminded that I used to be rather fascinated with how everything worked and wanted to create my very own supercomputer (hmm), but I was completely ignorant about the use of electricity and other technical matters. This book contains complicated ideas that may be grasped and built. The author even lists where to get parts for the machines he discusses.

Computer Science Distilled: Learn the Art of Solving Computational Problems
And to wrap things up, this book employs comics, memes, and emojis to illustrate all the ideas you’ll encounter in your beginning computer science course. There are numerous incredible free computer science courses available, but this technique remains the best.
