Nearly 30 years ago, I read a book, Wizard's Bane, by Rick Cook. The magical system was so logical that the protagonist learns to use it much like a programming language--writing magical subroutines, etc.

I really enjoyed it.

I think the first book was Wizard’s Bane can’t recommend it enough.

I haven't read either of these, but the description of the The Laundry Files reminds me of Wizard's Bane/Wiz Biz where a computer programmer weaves small magic spells into programs to make more powerful spells. It's a light-hearted fantasy.

You might also want to take a look at Simon Green's Nightside, Secret History, and Ghost Finders series.
