Book: 10 PRINT (a story about the culture of software)

10 PRINT CHR$(205.5+RND(1)); : GOTO 10 (to give the book its full title) takes a single line of code and uses it as “a lens through which to consider the phenomenon of creative computing and the way computer programs exist in culture”: to summarise, it anatomizes simplicity and elegance in design.
