Code Complete, Second Edition (AKA: Code Complete 2) is a classic about software construction, first written by Steve McConnell more than 20 years ago. This Second Edition is not just a simple revision and supplement of the first Edition, but completely rewritten, and increased a lot of content keeping pace with the times.

Code Complete, Second Edition covers all details in the software building process. From perspectives such as software quality and programming ideas, it detailedly discussed each problem of software builds, as well as new technologies following the trends, forward-looking views, general concepts, and contained abundant, typical application examples. So we can say, no matter what kind of background the reader has, reading this book would help you write better applications in a shorter period of time, much more easily.

For programming, it is important to draw lessons from others’ successful experiences, especially those best practices. And most often, this makes the differences between novice and expert programmers. Fortunately, Code Complete, 2nd Edition told so many valuable experiences one by one, so as to make them obvious and readable. Even very often, you may excitedly think a loud when reading it. In a word, anyone who wants to learn software development should remember to read this book some day.
