By Kernighan and Ritchie. While terse and complete at the same time it is still accessible to someone with no C experience. That's a tough combination and they did it. It starts with hello world and moves up. They are typically very precise in their wording and almost evry sentance is useful. If you read and studied it and worked through all of the example problems they have in it you would be well on your way to being a decent C coder. see: http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/cbook/index.html Tim On Thursday January 04, 2001 13:03, Zaitsau, Andrei wrote: > Hello Everybody, > I want to start learning C programming ! > Does anyone want to suggest couple of beginners books on C (So I can > practice on my FreeBSD machine) ? > Please note, I completely new to C . > Thanks. > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
