@StarkRG@myside-yourside.net @oantolin@mathstodon.xyz worse, that one is referred to entirely by the last inital of the authors, k&r which seems to be a very computer science way to do it.
(And it's not like those two are not famous for anything else either)

@emily_s@mastodon.me.uk @StarkRG@myside-yourside.net Maybe it is a computer science thing. I just realized that I (a mathematician) call that book "Kernighan and Ritchie". The only thing I call "K&R" is the style of brace placement and indentation.
