Overview
Computer science and computer technology are constantly changing, and this handy dictionary has been expanded and updated once again to keep pace with newest developments. Updated to include expanded coverage of electronic publishing, the alphabetized entries define terms as familiar as DATABASE and INTERNET, and as esoteric as MANDELBROT SET. Tables and charts explain electronic circuit diagram symbols, the Quicksort algorithm in action, the way transistors operate, computer command codes, and just about everything else that relates to computers. The New York Times called this dictionary's previous edition "....a book that belongs on the desks of computer enthusiasts."Editorials
