“@Prathkum @ericksonodiaga you are hard core.. and I like that.. I started as a teen with Donald Knuth's @realDonaldKnuth The Art of Computer Programming, series.. hilarious he had to stop midway circa 1973 & develop a better solution to book typesetting before completing Volumes 4 to 7.. Thx Donald !! | Techwise, I have a certain permanent love for Knuth's magnum opus. | When I was a grad student, Knuth's book on algorithms was our handbook. His "boundary tag method" was the design I used for Frontier's object database.”

Not sure if this is the right fit?
Consider Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices by Robert C. Martin.
“Practical, code-first manual aimed at hands-on developers; it mixes object-oriented design, UML, design patterns, and Agile/XP practices with long C and Java examples. The most useful parts are concrete problem-solving walk-throughs: refactorings, design choices, and pattern implementations you can copy into real projects. Limitations: heavy on language-specific listings and prescriptive editorializing — the tone can feel didactic, and some examples read dated compared with modern language features. Not a gentle introduction; it's best used slowly and with a code editor open.”
