C by Example (Cambridge Computer Science Texts)

At present, C is one of the most popular programming languages. It is not only flexible, but efficient and highly portable, and is now used for writing many different kinds of programs, from compilers and assemblers to spreadsheets and games. Assuming only familiarity with basic programming concepts such as variables and looping, this book covers all aspects of the C language, including a detailed look at file handling and pointers. The text is self-contained and contains a wealth of examples and exercises that test the understanding of the concepts developed in each chapter. Anybody who wishes to come to grips with the art of programming in C will find this a most valuable book.
