Message-ID: <1991Feb19.193857.15697@ccu.umanitoba.ca> Date: 19 Feb 91 19:38:57 GMT Sender: news@ccu.umanitoba.ca Organization: Dept. Electrical Engineering, U of Manitoba Lines: 16 I've heard a lot about this book, and on the strength of how often it's mentioned, I'm considering ordering it. Can one person who uses the book give us a short description of what the book contains? Is it mainly code, or are the algorithms well-explained? Or is there no code? What language are the routines written in? Designed for a certain machine? I hope nobody takes a lot of time to review it - a few lines would help greatly. thanks, Kerry. -- Kerry Yackoboski The Scanning Tunneling Microscopy Laboratory in the Cellar U of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada
