These were both new ones to me, thanks for sharing!

I've just finished skimming this one and its pretty good IMHO!
My only gripe is the final "chapter" - "Advice from an old programmer".

It seems Mr Shaw has become somewhat disillusioned with the software engineering profession, but as someone who has beenn programming for at least as long as he has I have to say that I still enjoy it and find it rewarding both personally and financially. So don't let the final page of cynicism put you off a career in software engineering. Otherwise, if you are looking for a newbie tutorial this a is a good one although it has less depth than most other tutors, it's still a good first step. I assume it's still a work in progress too, since it jumps from Exercise (aka chapter) 10 to Excercise 27 in one go!

HTH,
