A great book for beginners

This bookhas taught me alot , thanks to les hancock and morris krieger for making this book comprehendable to new c programmers like. I especially enjoyed their second edition of c primer. I hope some authors will have the idea on how to present their learning style just like what mr. hancock and mr. krieger did !

Provides some good explanations

I have found this book to be a rather good means of acquiring knowledge on many aspects of C programming. It provides a simple yet effective means of explaining various topics in C programming to the reader, using anecdotes and so forth. It might not be as extensive or as long as some other books, and cover all of the topics, but instead provides to the point explanations on the the more prominent topics which helps the reader understand concepts quickly. This book can be a good way to assist in ones learning C, I used it in conjuction with a much larger and more drawn out book, when I don't understand something I often turn to this book which provides a look at the subject from a slightly different perspective. I recommend this book, to be used in conjuction with another book such as Stephen Kochan's excellent and recommended Programming in ANSI C, but unfortunatly the C Primer is out of print.
