I am just starting out my journey into programming with C and was wondering what book you would consider reading? I'm not a total noob to computers hardware/software but a noob to programming...took a VB class years back and only remember bits and pieces...thanks

    • I remembered I started learning Turbo C over 10 years ago. It is small and runs in DOS.

  • A fantastic book for beginners is "Absolute Beginner's Guide to C" (2nd Edition) by Greg Perry. You can get it at Amazon. It's very easy to understand and is actually fun to read. Published in 1994, it's an old, but excellent book.

  • I have been wanting to learn about C as well what i have found best honestly is the internet. GOOGLE is like one big book
  • You should check out "The C Programming Language" by Dennis M. Richie and Brian W. Kernigham. I haven't read it but I keep reading it is the best book to learn C from.
  • If you wish to learn C, The C Programming Language", 2nd Edition, by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie is a good choice. Additionally, "C Programming: A Modern Approach" written by K N King is also recommended.

    Good luck with this type of high-level programming language!
  • Absolute Beginner's Guide to C" (2nd Edition) by Greg Perry - Highly recommended
