Summary: Not perfect but reasonable
Review: This book okay, as some other reviewers say there are some "mistakes". I wouldn't consider them mistakes, just not ANSI C. Besides that I find it great reading, easy to find what I need. As for other books on the market, I find most of them harder to read.

Summary: It is really "the complete reference"
Review: This book teach you since the beginning of C for advanced techniques. If you are a beginner or a senior programmer, you must have this book, reasons:
- Teachs all C basics, with an easy and clean language;
- easy-to-understand code examples;
- shows the basics of artificial intelligence;
- shows data structures, binary trees, nodes, etc;
- Have a full part teaching how to write a C interpreter, using everything you've learned on the book. You'll be able to write advanced code after reading this part.
- And the MAIN PART of the book: has a complete reference of C functions, with list of parameters of each function, little description and examples.
The only bad thing is the chapter about pointers and matrices. In some parts I got confused. But, after reading the entire book.. I've understood all the logic involving pointers and matrices.
This is the most used C book here in the brazilian universities.
Recommended! You MUST have this book in your shelf!

Summary: This is a great C book!
Review: This is a great book on C. It covers the language, the libraries, and even includes complete coverage of the new 1999 ISO standard for C. It even includes source code for a C interpreter! Like all other Schildt books (and I have read quite a few), this book is well organized and accurate! I rate this as the one "must have" book on C.
Rating:
Summary: This is the single best book on C that you can buy.
Review: This is one great book. It is fully compliant with Microsoft's Visual C++, thorough, and well organized. It is loaded with hundreds of examples. Schildt is one great writer!

Summary: The best book on C
Review: This is the best book on C ever written with a possible exception of K&R. But what K&R explains in terse language , this book explains in a lot of depth and in a manner which can be practically implemented.I have loads of books on C, but think that this one is by far the best and ought to be used by each and every student who ever wishes to learn C.

Summary: A good book for C learners
Review: When I contact C, its this book that led me into the entrance of C programming. And I like its 1988 version more than the 1995/1998 version. I think the Dos-based graphic skill is important for anyone who want to lean more about the machnism of computer graphics

Summary: Very useful
Review: While void main(void) is technically incorrect by the ANSI standard (and a very common mistake among writers), the book is still very useful. The book is referenced very frequently for obscure methods by programmers I work with and I would hate to be without it. Very organized and concise.
