With so many C programming textbooks to choose from, it can be hard to
find one that's engaging and readable. The first edition of
C Programming: A Modern Approach
was a hit with instructors and students alike because of its clarity
and comprehensiveness as well as its trademark Q&A sections.
The book's spiral approach made the first edition accessible to a broad
range of readers, from beginners to more advanced students.
The first edition was used at over
225 colleges, making it one of the
leading C textbooks of the last ten years.
Features of the Second Edition
- Complete coverage of both the C89 standard and the C99 standard, with all C99 changes clearly marked
- Includes a quick reference to all C89 and C99 library functions
- Expanded coverage of GCC
- New coverage of abstract data types
- Expanded coverage of international features
- Updated to reflect today's CPUs and operating systems
- 60% more exercises and programming projects
- Solutions to one-third of the exercises and programming projects available to all readers at this web site (coming by April 30)
- Password-protected instructor resource site containing solutions to the remaining exercises and projects as well as PowerPoint presentations
for most chapters (coming this summer)
Praise for the Second Edition
I thoroughly enjoyed reading the second edition of C Programming and I look forward to using it in future courses.
—Karen Reid, Senior Lecturer, Department of Computer Science, University of Toronto
The second edition of King's C Programming improves on an already impressive base, and is the book I recommend to anyone who wants to learn C.
—Peter Seebach, moderator, comp.lang.c.moderated
Praise for the First Edition
I assign C Programming to first-year engineering students. It is concise, clear, accessible to the beginner, and yet also covers all aspects of the language.
—Professor Markus Bussmann, Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, University of Toronto
