Hi to all, this is my review


My background
*-----------------------------------*
I'm am a computer science student and I worked as a QA person and a C programmer I have an experience of more than 9 years (Apr-2008) in the software field.

C Vs others
*-----------------------------------*
In the course of my studies I studied the following programming languages:
PROLOG,JAVA,ADA(ADA-95,ADA-83),C,C++,PASCAL.
Only when I studied C and used this book I felt that I can control the language and fully understand it. With all the other programming languages I learned, it just did not happen. (There are of course many other reasons like: JAVA has much more to give than c has (it has more libraries and "more syntax"), PROLOG as far as I know has no ANSI,ADA is completely boring and hard to learn, etc).
C is a fast easy to use, easy to read language and for small and fast programs is good and useful.


More about the book
*-----------------------------------*
This book helped me use C like a pro without having the experience of an experienced C real-time programmer.
This book was not meant to be a study guide, and this book was not meant to be
a beginners reference.
This book is for advanced C programmers, It is really a simple book that holds almost everything you need to know about C (ANSI-C), but in order to understand it you need some programming experience and skill.
The book covers all the areas I ever needed, and is a perfect reference, It is so good as reference that I preferred using it than using the Internet (which as we can all see is a very powerful tool).

Who needs this book?
*-----------------------------------*
Students, programmers, people who want to build simple applications for small hardware etc.

The END
*-----------------*
