A GREAT BOOK TO REVIEW C OR USE AS A REFERENCE!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This book is a great book to learn C or simply reviewing C. Paul Perry and Stephen Potts do a great job of presenting C in a concise easy-to-read book. I wonder if Paul Perry is related to Greg Perry??? Since I'm an occasional programmer, I needed a book to review C without wading through a 600-page text. So, for a review of C, this book is excellent, even though the book was published in the mid-1990s. Yes, a few things have changed. But, most of it's relevant. But it's only 240 pages! So many books are big 1000 page door stops that are great for initially learning C. This book, "Crash Course in C" not only makes a great review guide, it also makes a handy quick-reference. So, if you've been programming in Java or Visual Basic and need to get back into C without boring yourself to death, then get this books!
Good for a quick reference library

I've used this book in preparing a three day "crash course" in C. I found the reference material invaluable when creating my presentation. The easy access to information and the clear, concise descriptions were just what I needed when preparing slides. I would recommend this book to any moderately experienced C programmer who has to teach C to others. I have also encountered one of my peers who used this book to learn C and he found it extremely helpful in learning C from the ground up.
