 "C is important because it gives you a much more fundamental understanding of how the computer works," explains coauthor David Griffiths. "If you really understand C, you will be more equipped to learn other languages. If you know C, you can become a better Java programmer; you will have a better understanding of how Python works; you'll have the foundations in place to program games in C++, or write code in Objective C, or enter the world of open source development on Linux. "C is an entry point to a whole other level of development." With Head First C, you'll learn key areas such as language basics, pointers and pointer arithmetic, and dynamic memory management. Advanced topics include multi-threading and network programming—topics typically covered on a college-level course. This book also features labs: in-depth projects intended to stretch your abilities, test your new skills, and build confidence. Head First C mimics the style of college-level C courses, making it ideal as an accessible textbook for students. For more information, visit oreilly.com. |
