Re: CCL: A New Book etc.

 Huang's advertisement for his own book has left me with some
 questions.
 Since this is described as a laboratory book, I think it is
 fair to ask the advertisement to contain some information about
 the "equipment" that this lab will use. There are plenty of
 book on the market that sound interesting but which turn out
 to make rather specific assumptions about the hardward and/or
 software one will be using. A welcome change from that is
 The Art of Computer Programming, by D.E.Knuth, which does
 all of the work on a fictitious machine designed in imitation
 most of the leading computers at the time the book was written.
