First, there is the bible of the C but for which the exact title
escapes me and which has been borrowed from me.  Now, my suggestion
is to get that book along with "C: The Complete Reference" which was
written by Herbert Schildt.  I find it an invaluable reference when 
I am looking up this or that.  I am a fairly new beginner to C
programming and keep both next to me when I am doing my work.
