Product Description
C Programming in Easy Steps instructs you how to create computer programs in the C language both on Windows platforms and on Unix-based platforms, such as Linux. It contains separate chapters on the major features of the C language. There are complete example programs that illustrate each aspect of C together with screenshots that illustrate the output when that program has been executed.
C Programming in Easy Steps has an easy-to-follow style that will appeal to anyone who wants to begin programming in C. It will appeal to programmers moving from another programming language, and to the student who is studying C programming at school or college, and to those seeking a career in computing who need a fundamental understanding of procedural programming.
Reader Reviews
This review is from: C Programming in Easy Steps (In Easy Steps) (Paperback)
When it comes to a book like this, one thing I try to do is consider what the book says about itself. Does it claim more than it shows? This is a good book for what it sets out to do - show you C programming in easy steps. It helped me get through my Programming I class this past semester. There were many times when I found myself plowing slowly through my classroom text book. It was a good text, don't get me wrong, but it was also big and contained more lengthy explanations which took me twice as long to read. I simply didn't have that time. McGrath's books hit the nail on the head for me several times throughout the semester quick and easy. It told me what I needed to know and showed me a quick example of how to do something. Does it show you everything that you need to know in C? Of course not, but then keep in mind that it doesn't claim to do so. A good handy reference book if I say so myself.
