Customer ReviewsRating: 4 out of 5 Best Quick Review This book did for me what no other computer language book (for any computer language) has been able to do. After several years of occasionally fooling around with C, I picked up this book and got almost all the way from cover to cover in just a few hours. At the end I grasped the basics of this language -- including some tough concepts like memory allocation and pointers to addresses, which I had not been able to fully understand before. The only problem I had was in the last chapter, when I was too worn out to understand the topic of linked lists. The similarly small sized reference book by Kernighan and Ritchie may be more complete but is too hard for me to get through.
