Elements of Programming (4th edition)

By M H van Emden

Most programming is done in convenience languages like JavaScript or Python, but the best starting point for learning to program professionally is the one and only bare-metal language, the programming language C. University students in engineering, science, and mathematics are best served by starting at the professional level: they have the right aptitudes and skills. The same holds for the many programmers with years of experience in languages like Java or C# who need or want to experience the kind of programming revealed by C.This book covers the elements of programming: variables, pointers, primitive data types, control structures, functions, recursion, arrays, strings, structures, and unions. But language features are in the background: the meat of this book is its collection of instructive examples, all ready to run.
