Book Overview:

The C programming language is the grandfather of most modern structured programming languages such as Java, C++, and Pascal. Learning C is still considered the best way to gain experience with the core concepts of programming before advancing to the more popular object-oriented languages currently in widespread use. Legacy C programs abound in industry, and novice programmers are often the ones called upon to maintain this code. Finally, C is the language of choice for embedded systems development for appliances and small devices. These reasons--and many others--mean that programmers will be learning C for many years to come.
