Too long - and that's without considering the plentiful short-forms.

Appendix F (and exercise 5.22) were beyond me. F.5, F.23, F.27, F.34 (of those that I did try), G.3, G.5 to G.11 (FORTRAN).

3.7, 3.8, 3.11, 3.12, 3.14, 3.15, 3.17, 4.1, 4.5, 4.6, 4.11, 4.12, 4.14, 4.17, 5.2, 5.8, 5.9, 5.12, 5.15, 5.16, 5.18, 5.19, 5.28 (map and reduce).

WSC is a far cry for someone who wishes for a workstation. Most of the exerci

I hope to apply all I have learnt. It's a bit much:

A.6, A.7, A.8, A.12, A.13, A.14 to A.18, A.20, A.22, B.4, B.6, B.13, B.15, C.5, most of those in appendix D (and they are by the authors of an operating systems book).

1.3, 1.6 (why not blow up and out like in the mission impossible ghost protocol movie), 1.7, 1.9, 1.11, 1.15, 2.3, 2.5, 2.15, 2.16, 2.19, 2.23, 2.30, 2.34, 2.35, 2.38, 2.40, 2.43, 2.44, 2.45, 2.47,

Most of the exercises are numerically intensive (non calculus based) formula substitution arithmetic for averages, expected values and more using tables and charts. I might want to share some interesting ones.

I had read a chapter on charged coupled devices from a semiconductor physics book which also discussed other transistor level fabrication intricacies (that I will read some other time). Ironically, books that

This book is like an extra large research paper with the appendices longer than the actual text. Rereading with suggested order:

1. Appendix A + B + C
2. Chapters 1 + 2
3. Appendix D + E + F + G
4. Chapter 3 + 4 + 5
5. Appendix H + I
6. Chapter 6
7. Appendix J + K
8. Chapter 7
9. Rest of the Appendices.
