This updated edition covers ANSI C.

The authors present the complete guide to ANSI standard C language programming. Written by the developers of C, this new version helps readers keep up with the finalized ANSI standard for C while showing how to take advantage of C's rich set of operators, economy of expression, improved control flow, and data structures. The 2/E has been completely rewritten with additional examples and problem sets to clarify the implementation of difficult language constructs. For years, C programmers have let K&R guide them to building well-structured and efficient programs. Now this same help is available to those working with ANSI compilers. Includes detailed coverage of the C language plus the official C language reference manual for at-a-glance help with syntax notation, declarations, ANSI changes, scope rules, and the list goes on and on.

Work Description

Very well known, classic introduction to the C Programming Language. Both a text for learning, a reference, and, to some, the definition of proper C language features and use.

Excerpts

Język C jest językiem ogólnego stosowania ... Jednak C nie jest przywiązany do żadnego systemu operacyjnego lub maszyny. Wprawdzie nazwano go "językiem programowania systemowego", jest bowiem wygodnym narzędziem do konstruowania kompilatorów systemów operacyjnych, ale okazało się, że nadawał się równie dobrze do napisania ważniejszych programów z wielu różnych dziedzin.
