I program in both C and C++. This book is okay. There are better ones. I suggest watching Takin’ It All Off VHS video rather than reading this text.

This book is totally useless for beginner.When you read it ,you will feel very confused.There are not enough examples and the explanation is not clear.If you really want to learn C,I recommend you the book which called ‘Beginning C’ by Ivor Honor.’Practical C Programming’ is totally useless ! Don’t buy it!

With its Bright Purple pages and unclear explainations in this book . I couldnot find a worse book to read on C . If you are a newbie to C find another book this book will only make you run away from C. This book should be givin to people who have already read 2 begginner books on C.

the book talks all the interesting aspects of C, and very useful if you are familiar with it. but not a good book if you need one for reference.

I am new to programming and have tried several other C books, but nothing like this one. I think the best part about this book is on pointer, ch. 13 show good graphical description for readers to understand with ourt confussion. if you are trying to learn visual C++ compiler, it uses 4.0 or later and I do not think it was intended to teach visual C++. I agree with some of the negative reviews that this book may not be good for everyone, but I would strongly recommand to those who have good common sense.
