Rating:  Summary: Excellent Book Review: This book not only has in depth explanation of C, but it also covers quite a lot in C++. The appendix pages are great, but what i love most is the list of functions in the standard library.The book itself is clearly written with many differen color text, and color boxes used. Although this book is a little too big to read through, it is excellent for reference.
Rating:  Summary: Great Beginner's guide Review: This book was very helpful in learning the basics of C programming. Gradual introduction to C++ helps move on to OOP. It does a better job then those "Teach yourself" books. If you're looking on learning the basics of C Programming, this is an excellent resource. However, do NOT think this will teach you everything you need to know about C programming. This book was also used for my Unix and File Structures in my college courses. Definitley a good buy!
Rating:  Summary: Not for beginners Review: We used this book in an Intro to C programming class. This is not a book for beginners. The instructor knew that this book would not make sense to us without a lecture to introduce the concepts. At best, he hoped that after he explained the concepts, this book would be a way to review them. I didn't even find it useful for that.
