    Excellent introduction to programming.

    I've learned tonnes from this book so far, has really inspired me to learn as much as I can about computing (I'm doing it as a hobby). C is a great beginner language to learn because it's a relatively small language that forces you to be very disciplined with your code, although it can be difficult to stick with it sometimes. Note that it doesn't touch on how to set up you compiler or actually compile programs, as these details are system-specific. If you're on Windows, you might want to look into the Visual C++ build tools (try googling visualcppbuildtools_full and you'll find a Microsoft blog entry that explains more).

    More of a collector's relic than a practical helper

    Very out of date, once you get past the basis Fahrenheit to celsius exercises an exact copy of the code means they won't compile, there are no completed useful codings, so not practical. You are looking at small snippets of code from the past which you will have to debug yourself. Not a book you can learn a lot from if you don't have a lot of spare time, sadly.

    Get started where it all began.

    I thought that starting with the book that defined our programming in the beginning was a good place to start. This book takes you through the different tasks, I have yet to finish it. I also have the C Answer book to go along with it as well The standard C library from the era. I want to get all the information I could. I first bought the kindle version but when you just want to read a bit or reference a previous section , nothing beats the physical edition IMO. My only regret is that I did not start when the book came out. Things would be so much different. Thanks for reading and pick up a book. Get the one pictured , as I have heard that the international edition is different and the pictured edition was recommend to me.

    For a book that is almost 40 years old, it was in good condition. It's a good read for studying how things were and how they came to be.
