- "The Art of Computer Programming" are THE classic computer science books.

- My questions are, are these books still worth reading or are they outdated?
- The copy of volume 1 I found has a copyright date of 1973, so, should I
- just read them as a historical reference or is most of the technical content
- still applicable to today's programming methods?

- A friend said me that Knuth Books are a Treasure Wells. I agree
- with him, because I think that " we can change computers but not
- the mind of the art of computing"
