To be a mildly good programmer: long journey

Just check out in Amazon a bunch of programming books which could be useful in job interviews.  Of course, there are 4 essential sets of book I think everyone should read - I will say DEK, CLRS, Segewick and Bentley are the most essential.   Then there are the more advanced version of books which are mostly used for preparing interview.   PIE, Cracking Interview, Algorithm for Interviews.  Of course this doesn't count books about languages.

I believe a sane way is to follow one single book first and then get it through till the end.  During the time, it's alright to reference with other books.  Once you finish 1 book, then move on to finish another one.  In this way, genuine improvement will come to you.
