I'm not talking about the one's that think they know math but don't really know about real math.

i want to improve my skills in c language

[Yash E · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have known this book since my undergrad studies and happen to have a look at it back then once or twice for reference. Now, after so many years, I had to revise C language for some basic terminology. Of all the books I've referred to study C back in the days, how I wished I had given a deeper look into the pages of this book!

The author has a great engaging style of explanation with suitable examples to help us grasp the concepts easily. Unlike many programming books out there laden with jargon and complex terminology, and a very dry explanation of the topics, this book is a sure page turner. And the exercises at the end of every chapter can help you put your understanding to test.

I would recommend this book to anyone new to computer programming and intending to learn C language. You won't regret picking up this book.

It is a very good book for beginners to learn the concept of C language. The book starts with the history of C language and then go step by step forward to teach all the concepts such as Loops, Decision making, Arrays, Pointers, Functions, Recursion, C preprocessor, Structures, Strings, Console input/output, Unions, etc. There are so many examples given in this book. So, beginners will definitely benefit from this book.

This is the first technical book that I have read, and this is a great book in terms of explaining things from scratch. Thanks to this book I am able to understand the basics of programming. And a specially the topic `Pointers` is explained amazingly in this book. Whoever starting their career in IT sector should I have read this book at least one, and if you want to do work in embedded systems than it is a must to read book. Thanks. Happy Coding :)

This is this right book for beginners, not just for C, but for programming itself. Author's style is simple and has explained the concepts in a way that's is easy to assimilate.
Don't miss the exercises at the end of each chapter!

Read this book in my 1st-year college but never liked it. It's better to learn C from the K&R book.

A really good book for beginners

[Sarthak · Rating 4 out of 5]

Learning C actually made me cry and contemplate whether programming was for me. This book did help relieve the pain a little bit.

[Sami Khan · Rating 5 out of 5]

it is a good book

[Ahsan Barkati · Rating 5 out of 5]

I think it is one of the best book for those who have zero knowledge of programming...and it makes the zero to very advanced graphical progamming skills under windows and linux....very clear explanations of every concept..... Must start with it if you wanna walk in the streets of programming

[Muhammad Tayyab · Rating 4 out of 5]

A beginner guide to programming in C. I helped to understand in very simple to understand English. This book didn't use difficult English words or kind of that to avoid complication in understanding the C language. If you just started to learn English then you'll have no issue in understanding terms and sentences used in the book. It can build foundation for understanding C language.

[Prakash Adidam · Rating 5 out of 5]

Perfect book for newbies, who enter get into programming through the windows machines, teaches you about making calls to dos interrupts, apart from teaching c coding skills in an easy to understand way.

[Gdv Suresh]

it was good book at beginners stage
