[Techtalk] Recommending Books, C books

[Amanda]

I recommend the following C books

For Learning C

	"C Programming a Modern Approach" 
	K.N. King, ISBN 0-393-96945-2
		Its used in freshman programming courses.
		Takes a spiral teaching/learning path.
	
	"Programming with C"
	B. Gottried, Schaum's Outline Series, 
	ISBN 0-07-024035-3
		To the point with lots of examples.

Intermediate C

	"Expert C Programming" 
	P. van der Linden, ISBN 0-13-177429-8
		Digs into those weird C declarations.
		Digs into linking and stack frames with pictures.

Reference C Books

	"The C Programming Language (ANSI C)"
	B. Kernighan & D. Ritchie, ISBN 0-13-110362-8
		Just the facts, the essential reference for professionals,
		hackers, language lawyers and coffee shop arguments
		
	"The Standard C Library"
	P.J. Plauger, ISBN 0-13-131509-9 
		All in one hold-in-your-hands book
		and a bit more informative than Man Pages.

I hope I typed the ISBNs correctly. I tend to have dyslexic fnigers

To C or not to C++, that is the question.
