The Geekiest Book Cover Ever!

This is probably the geekiest book title ever:

IF(Sid_Vicious == TRUE&& Alan Turing == TRUE) } ERROR_Cyberpunk() }

Written by Jason Rogers and Jason Earls.

    can’t make out an inscription on the cover, but looks gothic :)

    the correct title is:

    IF(Sid_Vicious == TRUE && Alan Turing == TRUE)
    {
    ERROR_Cyberpunk()
    }

    the code in the title of this post and at amazon won’t compile xD

    Good call Mario, but I’m not sure what flavor of C, C++, Obj.C or C# is happy with identifier names with spaces in it. Alan Turing is not a valid identifier.

    Too make it really geeky, the title should have been Lisp or one of the derivatives.

    true, didn’t noticed that one :D

    there’s a semicolon missing from the function call also.

    well at least the title printed on the cover is correct. amazon should pay more attention to the information about the products it sells… but that’s another story…

    imagine a title in assembly! xD
