It is an excellent insight into some of the darker corners of C. I think I learned more about C from this book than from any other. ( )no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com (ISBN 0131774298, Paperback)Defying the stereotypical notion that technical books tend to be boring, Expert C Programming offers a lively and often humorous look at many aspects of C--from how memory is laid out to the details of pointers and arrays. The author reveals his points through invaluable anecdotes, such as stories of costly bugs, and through folklore, such as the contents of Donald Knuth's first publication. Each chapter ends with a section entitled "Some Light Relief," which discusses topics (topics that some may consider to be "recreational"), such as programming contests. A fabulous appendix on job interview questions finishes the book.(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:10 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
