C Programming 2e: A Modern Approach Paperback – Illustrated, 16 May 2008

This is a great book. And it also shows a new programmer the idioms in common usage in industry - that's very valuable. I've tried to learn C a couple of times and this book really got me into it. There are other famous books which are inferior to this one imo.

Easy to read English. Short sentences , precise examples . Good explanations. Gradual rise in complexity .Pointers , types , Pointer Arithmetic , Multidimensional Array , Structure , Unions , explained in clear readable text.I wish my first book in c was this one. I get that great "YES I UNDERSTAND IT NOW FEELING !!" after every paragraph .10/10.

One of the best book to learn classic c. Although four times thicker than K&R it is much easier to read. solutions to the exercises are available on the www. Highly recommended for self learners or for use in a course. Still up to date but hopefully a version 3 is in the making.

I'm a complete beginner to C and a novice at programming. This book explains things really and the programming tasks are very good at reinforcing everything you've just read, which would be impossible to retain otherwise. The main thing I dislike is how thin the pages are. If you hold books like your average person, you will leave permanent thumb stretch marks and indents in the pages. It's very easy to tear pages too.

C may be considered by some as long in the tooth and past it's sell by date, but it is still widely used.This book offers an up to date method to better understand the C language and as the title suggests, in a modern way.If you want a better understanding of C and how it can be applied in today's world, then this book is for you

This book is the most clear and concise programming book I have read. And I can honestly say that it is the only one I have actually enjoyed reading due to the informal language style. Being a computational physicist I wish my university had just told me to read this book rather than give the lectures as it would have saved many hours debugging!

I have a physical printed copy of both the first AND second edition of the REAL book. The Kindle edition as of November 2022 is of VERY POOR QUALITY and I have had to return it to Amazon for a refund. I do not understand how this can be offered for sale in its present form. DO NOT BUY until this has been corrected. I am sure that it would be worth buying if it was a faithful reproduction of the actual physical book. I may buy the Kindle edition again if this situation is rectified.

One of the best books on C that I have read. Clear, good pace, good examples. Highly recommended.
