5.0 out of 5 stars Best start for anyone interested in C programming, 25 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Programming in C. (Paperback)
This book is a comprehensive, extremely easy read by Stephen Kochan. I recommend it for any early programmer, and it serves as useful reference material for any experienced programmer. Readers are taken step by step through a learning process. They are introduced to new material constantly, and it is well explained so no one should have trouble getting through it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Concise Crystal Clear -- 5 Big Shiny Stars, 20 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Programming in C. (Paperback)
I found this book indispensable both to learn C and to learn a way of thinking about C. The author uses a well selected and deliberately sequenced set of program examples to thoroughly demonstrate what's going on. These programs are developed and modified from one chapter to the next to show different features of the language. I even have better insight, now, into a few mathematics concepts that I've always had trouble with because of the author's excellent presentation of these concepts using C language -- truly amazing. The writing style is logical, well-paced and consistent -- I never found myself trying to guess what the author meant -- which is pretty incredible with most computer books these days. And after reading the book in its entirety, I was able to see that the whole work was planned to succeed by the thoughtful cohesion of supporting elements (like a good program) rather than thrown together to succeed by sheer force of volume (like, say, a Microsoft product?). The best chapter on C functions that I've read anywhere. Possibly the best introductory book on C in my opinion.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best, 29 Sep 2005
By Ari N (Göteborg, Sweden) - See all my reviews
Programming in C is probably the best introduction I've read to any programming language. It's the near-perfect example of how a computer book should be written, a pleasure to read, well-paced, challenging, addictive.

What's best with it, though, is that it has inspired great confidence in me. I *know* now that C is a language I can master.

So I've ordered K&R for a reality check. It should be arriving any day now.
