HUH

i receieved the book on time but there was a huge ugly sticker on it and the cover was kind of crumpled./

Using it for my class

Used this text in college for C programming, and will adopt the C++ version for the class I teach!Easy to read, plenty of examples, and does not overwhelm the beginning programmer with useless information. Practical, easy to use...best for C programming (and it's sister text for C++).

Simple and straight forward

I studied from this book for my class two years ago. I thought that the book carefully explains concepts with out being wordy, which lessen the frustrations and uneasiness of learning how to program for the first time. After each major new concept, the book writes an example program. Following the programs are explanations of everything in the program. Why they write this or why use this method, etc. The exercises are helpful. However, if they have a solution guide to go with it, it would had been even better. Overall, this book is great for anyone trying to learn C on their own. It doesn't leave out anything and the concepts are explained in a straightforward and clear manner.

Computer Science: A Structured Programming Approach Using C

This is the best C book I have ever seen. If you want to learn C programming language this is the only book you will need.

A Book covers the detailed basic...

I used this textbook for my C class. I found that this book covers the detailed basic. For a beginner, it is regarded a good book to start.
