3.0 out of 5 stars Good for programmers new in C, 1 April 1999
By A Customer
I first used this book as a university text in a first semester course. As a beginner in programminng and C I was totally confused. The book was too difficult to read. Later on though, I found it an exellent reference and guidebook. It covers the Language very well, but you need some knowledge beforehand. In my first year of software development this book quickly ran out of steam. It does not address complex issues in much detail. I felt it lacked the "why" of coding. Sorry mates A very good book for programmers who want to learn C.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for people who are intrested, not for collage., 9 April 1999
By A Customer
This is an amazing book. It is very detailed and gives nice examples. Twoards the end of the book the examples get a bit lengthy which can be a bit annoying. This book may be difficult for someone who is not completely dedicated to learn the language. I would definetly not recommend it as an easy book. It is just packed with information and is not for dummies

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the dedicated self-starter (C or C++!), 26 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This book is excellent, and makes a great textbook for college-level use. However, it is definitely not for the lazy programmer! If you want a quick tutorial in C or C++, read a "..For Dummies" book. If you want to learn and truly understand the ins and outs of C, This is the book that can explain it to you. Do not be intimidated by its large size: the first 15 or so chapters are C-oriented, while chapters 16-21 delve into C++. The book also contains a large set of appendices that contain quick reference guides to keywords, syntax formats, and names of common header files with a list of functions each header file contains.
