Sams' Teach Yourself Advanced C in 21 Days

Rating:
Summary: It's perfect.
Review: Gone are the days of DOS console programming. You dont see the types of interfaces that are used in this book anymore. So why is it so good? It teaches some advanced concepts and libraries used in C. Also, you never know when that legacy app will need fixing<G> I found the subject material facinating and learned alot about putting together a database program without a fancy RDMS system. Something that can carry over to my JAVA programming world.

Summary: It is certainly a wonderfull book to intermediate programers
Review: I am a engeneer and work with automation, and actually is appearing open tecnologies to help to build more flexible net , allowing to mix many kind of different equipaments work together. And C is one of the subjects that are exploding at this segment of "devicenet". This book was certainly what i was looking for. I often study alone , and know i have a idea of how can i develop i simple software , cause i dont pretend to be a expert, i am really satisfy to have spend some money and time with this book , congratulations to the Authors. Forgive me for my Inglês , I dont use to exercise freguentily.

Summary: great book - really expands your knowledge of C
Review: I had read one C book before this, but this book really taught me a lot. It goes into stuff like binary trees, memory allocation, etc.. And at the end it has you write a big application..15-20,000 lines. The only problem i found is that it uses BIOS functions, which are not used in most compilers today. But overall, a great book. Buy it.

Review: I like it, even though I am not finished with it, I like how it is self paced and you can learn it in 21 days. I do agree that the author rushes through things, but other than that it is good.

Review: The C in 21 days is really a good programming book which provides example, coding, explaination and many more useful exercise. Then, the Advanced C is my next programming book, I'll more expert in C and many more. Explore it today !

Remember, C IS FUN!

Rating:
Summary: A great book
Review: This is a great book for learning some advanced C programming. Highly recommended. I can't believe someone would give this book 1 star because they didn't grasp the concepts. That this book is ADVANCED enough to thwart the learning efforts of a beginner makes it worthy of its name. In my mind, this is a praisworthy trait for a book to have (truth in the title).
