SICP, K&R, and the C Language in General

Ok, what's with the huge circle-jerk about these items in /prog/? It's like if anyone doesn't read all of these and memorize them backwards and forwards, and if anyone programs in anything OTHER THAN C, they are completely retarded and should burn themselves alive.

Props if any of you can answer the question without degrading yourselves to trolling

Protip: SICP is not a C book. It just has ``C'' in the title. Also: PAIP.

OP here.

Yea, I know. Those are just the things you guys swoon over all of the time, never said SICP was a C book (although K&R is, being the "white bible" and all that). Shouldn't be fooled by the "in General".

Also: TAOCP, I know the books, that isn't what I'm asking about...

Protip: PAIP is not an I book. It just has ``I'' in the title. Also: CL.

Protip: CL is not an L book. It just has ``L'' in the title.

Protip: GNU is not an G operating system. It just has ``GNU'' in the title.

You fail it.

It's hard not to fail

Half of /prog/ thinks anything higher level than C is useless faggotry.  The other half thinks anything lower level than Lisp, et al, is useless faggotry.  Only 1 person posts everything here.

I use both Haskell and C regularly.

I also prefer making sweet consensual love to my lawfully wedded wife in the missionary position, with the curtains drawn and the lights off.

HAHAHAHA
YOU THINK YOURE THOUGH UH ?
I HAVE ONE WORD FOR YOU
   THE FORCED INDENTATION OF THE CODE
GET IT ?
I DONT THINK SO
YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT MY OTHER CAR I GUESS ?
ITS A CDR
AND IS PRONOUNCED ``CUDDER''
OK YOU FUQIN ANGERED AN EXPERT PROGRAMMER
THIS IS /prog/
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO POST HERE ONLY IF YOU HAVE ACHIEVED SATORI
PROGRAMMING IS ALL ABOUT ``ABSTRACT BULLSHITE'' THAT YOU WILL NEVER COMPREHEND
I HAVE READ SICP
IF ITS NOT DONE YOU HAVE TO
TOO BAD RUBY ON RAILS IS SLOW AS FUCK
BBCODE AND ((SCHEME)) ARE THE ULTIMATE LANGUAGES
ALSO
WELCOME TO /prog/
EVERY THREAD WILL BE REPLIED TO
NO EXCEPTION

SICP is about ``ABSTRACT BULLSHITE'', K&R and C is just awesome.

Hello, first half of /prog/.

from __future__ import braces

i think SICP is a pretty cool guy. eh creates spells and doesn't afraid of anything.

i think Haskell is a pretty cool guy. eh curries functions and doesn't afraid of anything.

>>17
Haskell is afraid of changing states.
