「無論你想在程式設計面試中獲得優勢，想創造美麗的數學藝術，還是頑固地非得理解這個概念的有趣特性，這本書都將成為你深入遞迴這個兔子洞的指南（兔子洞裡還有兔子洞）。」遞迴程式設計技術可以產生優雅的程式解決方案，然而更常見的是，它讓程式設計師感到困惑。這並不代表程式設計師可以（或應該）忽略遞迴；儘管遞迴以具有挑戰性而聞名，但它是一個重要的電腦科學主題，並且可以對程式設計本身產生敏銳的洞察力。至少，了解遞迴可以幫助你順利通過程式設計工作面試。如果你是對電腦科學感興趣的學生，遞迴是你要理解許多流行演算法所必須克服的必要障礙。如果你是程式設計訓練營的畢業生或自學而成的程式設計師，並且順利跳過了更具理論性的電腦科學主題，但在「白板程式設計面試」中肯定還是會遇到遞迴問題。如果你是一位經驗豐富的軟體工程師，以前從未接觸過遞迴演算法，你可能會發現遞迴是你知識中一塊尷尬的缺口。❑ 本書目標讀者本書適合那些對遞迴演算法感到恐懼或感興趣的人。對於新手程式設計師或電腦科學系的大一新生來說，遞迴主題就像難以理解的黑魔法一樣。大多數遞迴課程都很難理解，使得這個主題不但讓人覺得挫敗，甚至令人心生恐懼。對於這些讀者來說，這本書的直接解釋和充足的例子應該能幫助他們最終理解這個主題。閱讀本書的唯一先決條件是具備 Python 或 JavaScript 程式語言的基本程式設計經驗，因為各章的程式碼範例使用了這兩種語言。本書的程式已被精簡到核心的基本結構； 如果你知道如何呼叫和建立函數，以及理解全域變數和局部變數之間的區別，那麼你就足以應付這些程式設計範例了。本書使用 Python 和 JavaScript 範例來教授遞迴的基礎知識，揭示了遞迴的教學方法，並闡明了所有遞迴演算法的基本原理。你將學習何時使用遞迴函數（最重要的是，何時不使用它們），如何實現工作面試中經常提到的經典遞迴演算法，以及遞迴技術如何幫助解決有關樹走訪、組合學等等許許多多的問題，以及其他棘手的話題。這個以專案為主的指南包含了完整的、可運行的程式，將能幫助你學習：☑︎ 遞迴函數如何使用呼叫堆疊，這是一種在遞迴課程中幾乎從未討論過的關鍵資料結構☑︎ 「頭尾」與「信仰飛躍」技巧如何簡化遞迴函數的編寫☑︎ 如何使用遞迴為你的檔案系統編寫自訂搜尋腳本、繪製碎形藝術、生成迷宮等☑︎ 優化和記憶如何使遞迴演算法更有效率

《INTERNET CAFE! PANDA》是台灣新銳攝影師陳智賢（Chih-Hsien Chen）的首本攝影集。他以抓拍式的影像速寫，紀錄了舊時代的網咖文化，關於那些混亂角落與奇葩之人，一幕幕幽默的走光式畫面，展現充滿在地特色的台灣奇景。 這系列作品的起源，來自攝影師在台中一間神秘網咖工作的經歷。許多常客都是中老年人，長期寄居在同一個黑色皮椅上，喜歡播色情片睡覺的禿頭阿伯、一次收費 600 元的站街小姐、永遠坐最後一排靠牆角落的撿回收爺爺⋯⋯他一邊工作收餐，一邊無法抗拒的受他們吸引，偷偷觀察他們古怪的言行舉止。 趁著工作空檔，他開始拿出相機，拍下各種生猛又滑稽的場面。一個一個衣衫不整的人，東倒西歪熟睡著，看起來像被槍斃了一樣。桌底下常常有精液，有人拉屎在樓梯上，沒有道德規則或文明禮儀，而是遵循動物性的原始直覺。在講求美觀和體面的當代社會，這間破舊的網咖，反而保存了一份真實的人性。 這些收錄於書中的照片，成為一系列台灣社會邊緣者的風俗群像，粗工、妓女、無家者、資源回收的人。閃光燈打在他們臉上，照亮他們千奇百態的睡姿、以小時計價的生活，有些脫序離奇，有些詼諧幽默，但無論如何，這就是他們未經修飾的網咖人生。

That's why our narrator has a plan to change the way things end. And make sure they finish at just the right time, in just the right way. But even the best plans can go awry.

The Avengers was the comic book of the 1970s. From Civil Rights to Women’s Lib, battles for the soul of America became battles between super heroes. Writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby co-created the all-star group of six super heroes in September 1963. From there, just three main writers chronicled Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in that most turbulent of decades: Roy Thomas, Steve Englehart, and Jim Shooter, each with differing approaches. The Avengers quickly became the pivot around which the Marvel Universe turned. To look back through its issues is to get a crash course in ’70s pop culture. Illustrated with full-color art from this legendary run, Paul Cornell’s entry in the MARVEL AGE OF COMICS series explores how the Mighty Avengers became icons during a time of immense change and upheaval.
