Prac Work (cont)

PostgreSQL is a large software system:
  • > 1000 source code files in the core engine/clients
  • > 500,000 lines of C code in the core
You won't be required to understand all of it :-)

You will need to learn to navigate this code effectively.

Will discuss relevant parts in lectures to help with this.

PostgreSQL books?

  • tend to add little to the manual, and cost a lot
