It is the best ACM publication that I regularly read. I like the format and the contents, and find it much more readable than CACM. I am sure that it could be improved, but, given what happened to CACM, I am afraid of any change right now. |> The content (and easy-to-find contents list) are good though. (I thought |> the recent article on "What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About |> Floating Point" particularly good.) Yes. This was an excellent article.
