It's been quite some time since I went to college and got my CS degree, but I feel like I never really paid quite enough attention there. I'm looking at (paradoxically) trying to take my abilities to the next level by getting back to the basics. As part of that, I'm looking into making a reading list of the "classics," as it were: the essential texts that almost any programmer could benefit from. Here's what I'm looking at so far:
The Art of Computer Programmimng (aka Knuth)
Design Patterns (aka GoF)
Compilers (aka the Dragon Book)
Structure and Intepretation of Computer Programs
Programming Pearls
The Pragmatic Programmer
Code Complete
Clean Code
The Clean Coder
The Little Schemer (and its sequels)
Do people here have suggestions for other books? Or possibly recommendations against some books I've already got on the list?
