This book has captured the perfect method to teach someone the C programming language. Many beginner books are very fluffy, others much to advanced. This book explains everything you need to know in a very simple, and extremely thorough manner. An excellect purchase.

This review is from: Teach Yourself C Programming in 21 Days (Teach Yourself in 21 Days) (Paperback)

This is the defunct standard for learning C in the quickest amount of time possible.

If you have any previous programming experience you'll find that you'll learn it even quicker. I read the book in 3 days and was already writing programs equivalent to what I was doing in Pascal only 3 days prior.
