Publisher's Note

This book is meant to help the reader learn how to program in C. It is the definitive reference guide, now in a second edition. Although the first edition was written in 1978, it continues to be a worldwide best-seller. This second edition brings the classic original up to date to include the ANSI standard.

From the Preface:

We have tried to retain the brevity of the first edition. C is not a big language, and it is not well served by a big book. We have improved the exposition of critical features, such as pointers, that are central to C programming. We have refined the original examples, and have added new examples in several chapters. For instance, the treatment of complicated declarations is augmented by programs that convert declarations into words and vice versa. As before, all examples have been tested directly from the text, which is in machine-readable form.

As we said in the first preface to the first edition, C "wears well as one's experience with it grows." With a decade more experience, we still feel that way. We hope that this book will help you to learn C and use it well.



Presents a complete guide to ANSI standard C language programming. Written by the developers of C, this new version helps readers keep up with the finalized ANSI standard for C while showing how to take advantage of C's rich set of operators, economy of expression, improved control flow, and data structures. This 2nd edition has been completely rewritten with additional examples and problem sets to clarify the implementation of difficult language constructs.

    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
    *-----------------*
    If you find this review helpful please don't forget and press "yes" on the "Was this review helpful?"
    Thanks for reading my review I hope it was helpful.
    Sorry for my spelling mistakes or misuse of The English Language if they occurred (Not a native speaker).
    Have a nice day!! : )
