Customer Reviews

A must have for any C Programmer

If you really want to understand the ins and outs of the C programming language, work through the examples in this book. I first read the first edition back in the mid 80s and still remember the lessons - and make practical use of them today. Really covers the traps of C syntax and how to use pointers properly. Highly recommended.

Most Worn Out C Book I Own

My old 1982 copy of The C Puzzle Book has always been my favorite C book. Without exception, it has proved useful many times over the years. Now, I have several more copies on order to put into our technical library at work and onto the desks of our more junior programmers.This is a great book!

Clearly the best book on ANSI C.

I truly wish I got a copy of this book earlier. It has explained a lot of strange quirks in C that I feel most people don't know about. What's amazing is that it's the smallest book on C I own and I learned more from this book then all the others. It's a great book for people doing C++, considering C is a subset of C++.

Great book. one of the most enlightening when learning C.

I was disappointed when i was looking for this book for my son and found out it was out of print. This was the one book that helped me understand pointers, array pointers and structures when i was learning C. I have bought other books but they just did not have the interaction that the C Puzzle Book had. Please bring it back.

Pity it's no longer in print - 1 of the best ways to learn C

Outside of writing a *LOT* of C-programs, this was the best way to quickly learn C. The derivations provided at the end of the book should enlighten everyone who wishes to learn C. If you manage to get a copy - keep it dearly !
