Breaking the Bug: Debugging as a Natural Phenomenon

Monday, November 24th, 2008

I was thinking about the universal character of debugging for quite some time and finally the following bugtation provided an inspiration for a new book title to be published during the Year of Debugging:

Title: Breaking the Bug: Debugging as a Natural Phenomenon
ISBN-13: 978-1906717377

More product details will be announced later.

Actually I believe in the mystical nature of various debugging numbers and sequences. For example, the ISBN number of this book ends in 377 which is the octal base equivalent of 0n255 or 0xFF.
