Title: "A Book on C"
Authors: Al Kelley & Ira Pohl
Publisher: The Benjamin/Cummings Publishing Company, Inc.
ISBN: 0-8053-6860-4
This book isn't too bad and contains plenty of good examples, except it seems
a little long and it takes forever to get into any of the meaty issues
(read: slow reading through uneccessary garbage). Personally, I remeber
Stephen Kochan's introduction to C book, "Programming in C" as being the
most easily digestable in a short period of time.
Title: "Programming in C"
Authors: Stephen G. Kochan
Publisher: Hayden Books (Howard Sams Company)
ISBN: 0-8104-6261-3
