a First Book of Ansi c

This book is intended as a first course in C programming. It is suitable for those new to programming as well as for those already familiar with another programming language. Access to a computer running C is assumed. With this condition the text is suitable for use in self-study, directed study through open or distance learning as well as via a more traditional approach as a class text. All the example programs and functions have been tested using Turbo C version 2.0. However, with very few exceptions, no changes should be necessary if other C compilers are used.

Beginning C, 5th Edition teaches you how to program using the widely-available C language. You'll begin from first-principles and progress through step-by-step examples to become a competent, C-language programmer. All you need are this book and any of the widely available free or commercial C or C++ compilers, and you'll soon be writing real C programs.
