Summary: Excellent book for beginners
Comment: Good book for beginners. Even if have never touched a programming language before this can get started. The author has some DOS specific commands in his programming. So it limits you in that respect. If you can figure out where to take out the DOS stuff you can use it on any platform.
Rating: 5
Summary: Perfect book to start to C programming
Comment: This book is the reason I like programming this much. It explains everything a beginner should wonder. Something like you are having private lessons from an expert.

Summary: AWESOME BEGINNERS BOOK FOR 'C' PROGRAMMING
Comment: Don't let nobody tell you different! I'm a Systems Engineer, not a programmer. This is the greatest 'intro to C' programming book of all time.
My version didn't have a CDROM it came with a floppy that I found to be fantastic. I've never depended on the FREE, GiveAway compiler that comes with any programming book. And I strongly recommend that nobody else should either.
Using the free 'cripple-ware' that comes with most programming books is a virtual guarantee of getting some indeterminate number of headaches, the magnitude of which, can be predicted.
NO THE AUTHOR DOESN'T DEAL HEAVILY WITH POINTERS, like some reviewers gripe about. But he covers them MUCH MORE THAN ADEQUATELY FOR AN "INTRO" BOOK. Detailed, in-depth coverage of pointers is simply, BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THIS BOOK's MISSION.
What makes this book so fantastic is that it is built in a great fashion from simple to more complex tasks that are RELEVANT, and that build on all of the previous knowledge. BUT, WHAT IS ABSOLUTELY KILLER, and nobody else seems to do this; is that there are a lot of programs given in the book
- AND RIGHT ON THE SAME PAGE, LINE-BY-LINE -
the author explains what each and every line of code is doing AND WHY.
Some of the other reviewers imply that this makes the book too simplistic; but for beginners, this is JUST AWESOME.
NO - IT's NOT THE RIGHT BOOK FOR ACCOMPLISHED PROGRAMMERS, BUT WHY WOULD THEY THINK THAT IT WOULD BE???
