For software engineers and computer programmers who are writing, developing, testing, debugging software on either IBM PCs or Unix systems.
Written for experienced C programmers who want to quickly pick up some of the insights and techniques of experts and master the fine arts of ANSI C, this volume passes on the wisdom of a highly experienced C compiler writer and his colleagues to help programmers reach new heights, and avoid common software pitfalls along the way. Using an original approach and a humorous style that makes deep knowledge both easy and accessible, it gathers into one place, tips, hints, shortcuts, guidelines, ideas, idioms, heuristics, tools, anecdotes, C folklore, and techniques that are often penciled in margins and on backs of papers by those working in the programming trenches—working on many different kinds of projects, over many, many years.

This review is from: Expert C Programming (Paperback)
I wrote C for ten years eight hours a day. This book accumulates what I have learned over this time period and even had something new for me.

This review is from: Expert C Programming (Paperback)
I liked this book, especially the way he comes up with funny phrases you don't see coming. I've read several other programming books (Safer C, Writing Solid Code, No Bugs!, etc), but this is definitely one of the ones that is enjoyable to read. It adds a light humour to the serious, useful information he provides.He goes into depth into the subjects of C declarations, memory, pointers, and arrays. He also explains some of the concepts behind the procedure activation record (used when calling a function), linking and compiling. He also challenges the reader with programming assignments to discover more, and provides programming advice.

more guff,
By A Customer
This review is from: Expert C Programming (Paperback)
The reader below might be surprised to learn that Expert C Programming was written several years before Java was thought of. Far from being a criticism of C designed to move readers to Java, Expert C is a tribute to the beauty of C, and makes no mention of Java whatsoever.Honestly! The stuff I have to put up with!
