Comment on Ask HN: Books that teach you programming languages via systems projects?parent

I can highly recommend this, on the following site you can find the labs accompanying the book http://csapp.cs.cmu.edu/3e/labs.html

remark: DON'T buy the Global Edition of the book, it contains different exercises than the original book and is riddled with errors, it's basically unreadable/unusable.

Second this, don't buy global edition. The authors explicitly mentioned that they are NOT going to release an errata for it. Probably because it would be a book of itself...

I always find the whole thing ridiculous. They literally just needed to copy-paste the original book. In their effort to discourage people from buying the international edition, they scrambled the exercises and their numbers. And introduced errors that way.

Yeah I absolutely have no idea why they did it. Looks like they hired someone to re-write the exercises (just using different numbers as you mentioned or switched orders) and in that way many answers are wrong :/

Searching YouTube for 15-213 there is lectures by the authors for that book too.
