當牆倒了，我如何能在三分鐘內發現並止血？ Vibe Coding，又稱「氛圍編碼」，讓完全不懂寫程式的人也能輕鬆設計出軟體、架網站、畫圖。簡單來說，Vibe Coding 就是請 AI 當你的程式設計小助手，讓它來幫你搞定程式碼，你只要提供概念，寫程式碼實現的部分 AI 會搞定。 DevOpsSec這個字，是開發、營運、安全人員團隊的縮寫，開發人員注重滿足客戶要的功能，營運人員要高可用性不客訴，而安全人員則希望程式能有機密性、完整性、可用性兼具。 讀者會問，AI 在訓練的過程中，大量的讀過很多程式設計師寫的程式碼，因此我給 AI 下指令後，他就能從「最佳實務」中產生符合我的概念的程式碼，我出概念，AI 負責用厲害的程式來滿足我和客戶的需求。 這本書不是定位在給專業資深程式設計師「肉眼」除錯用的，無論是 ISO27001：2022 的控制項目實作、OWASP Top10：2025 的常見資安弱點，無一倖免地都能把你的 AI 搞瘋，寫出連它自己都不相信的程式碼，然後再把資深程式設計師也搞瘋。更別談 AI 會記憶，不同人下相同的指令，寫出來的程式碼會有很大的機會內容不同。 所以，本書定位是寫給非資訊人員，有概念、會下基本指令的小小 AI ?唱師，以提示語來和 AI 做互動。我們只改一個小概念，就是「資安左移」，需求、威脅建構、實作、測試、上線、功能修補，越右邊的時候考慮資安，就越會把 AI 搞瘋，所以在最左方的「需求」描述的提示語，我們就要在本書中探討如何下提示語。並且有耐心的等候免費AI工具生成程式碼的行數或時間限制，用同一個 AI 來寫作，不要切換。 置於九地之下，始有九天之生，在本書中，我們也會有「一個人的紅隊」，讓讀者練習用 Kali Linux（知名滲透測試工具），來練習攻擊「資安左移」後的程式碼，然後用「資深程式設計師視角」，透過 Visual Studio Code 結合 Gemini 的方式來讓「資安左移」時沒處理好的程式碼，有進一步透過 OWASP Top 10:2025 的常見資安弱點做為藍圖來練習補正程式碼。 所以本書給初心者小小?唱師的部分，和給資深程式設計大牛，是給不一樣的建議和路徑的，請各自取用適合的章節並享受這個 AI 大爆發的時代。還是那句話，AI 不會取代人，但 AI 會取代不和 AI 協作的人。 在本書撰寫到一半篇幅時，XAMPP 這個

累積歷史銷量達十萬本的C語言經典書籍重新改版！ 這本書能夠讓您從零開始學習C語言，扎實打好C程式設計的基礎，並引領您成為一位專業的C程式設計師。本書具備下列特點： ■ 觀念大釐清：你知道你所學的C語言觀念錯在哪嗎？ ■ 上手超簡單：一語法一範例、大量圖解說明、開發工具指引 ■ 學習最多元：老師的叮嚀、Coding偷撇步、Coding注意事項 ■ 除錯大應用：透過浮點數比較運算，展示開發環境的除錯功能 ■ APCS應考先修：透過觀念的建立以及實作的累積，打好APCS的應考基礎。 對一本以最適合初學者學習為目標的書籍來說，本書著重於以下幾個特色： 一、嚴格要求觀念正確：本書特別釐清C語言只支援傳值呼叫(Call by value)的觀念，即便是傳指標呼叫(Pass by Pointer)也屬於傳值呼叫的一種，例如傳遞陣列即可獲得印證。因為傳址呼叫的被呼叫端可以影響呼叫端的引數，因此，呼叫端不可以使用不可變動的常數作為引數（詳見7-29頁）。 二、最適合初學者自習：每一個語法至少搭配一個範例來解說，並適時加入圖解來說明記憶體的變化與程式的架構。針對初學者更精心設計包含老師的叮嚀、Coding偷撇步、Coding注意事項、多種範例說明及語意綜合比較等，能有效提昇學習效率的技巧與方法。 三、最佳的教學範本：特別徵詢多位專業老師意見，內容安排由淺入深，並增加預覽篇延伸了未來的學習路徑。初學者依此學習路徑不但能讀懂程式，更能實際『撰寫』程式。學校採用作為教科書時，若學生直接對出版社團體採購，則另外提供眾多難度不一的習題電子書，且最後更包含一個Project型式的期末專題作為學習成果的驗證。
