Java is a very high level language that has interesting features that make it easier for programmers. The two main points, that I like about Java, are libraries (although libraries exist for C / C++ ) and memory management.
Data structures are covered well in chapter 11, showing the power of using pointers to structure members. How to share memory between variables is covered as is how to define your own data types. Those with a specific interest in embedded programming, where storage is tight and techniques to change and access bits in an I/O register will be disappointed with the brief coverage of bit-fields. The book is rounded out with a final chapter on the supporting features you should be looking for in your C programming IDE, with preprocessor macros, directives, conditional compilation and debugging methods covered along with a brief foray into date and time library functions. There are four Appendices followed by a 33 page index. A. Computer Arithmetic - binary and hexadecimal numbers, negative binary numbers, Big and Little Endian Systems and Floating Point numbers B. ASCII Character Code Definitions - but no mention of unicode, despite unicode formatting being covered in the text. C. Reserved Words in C - the power of C is ably demonstrated by the fact that so much can be done with just 37 reserved words! D. Input and Output Format Specifications (this is a useful reference supporting the many worked examples provided in several chapters) My only complaint is that here are more errors in this book (albeit minor) than I'd expect in a Fourth Edition. Book errata is available on line and the author did respond to some errors I submitted.

I found about 4 to 5 pages of useful information in the book and the rest was just fluf. If you want to learn about operating systems, assembly language, pointers and dynamic memory management, data structures, or algorithms, then get books that deal with topics explicitly. You wont find that kind of information in this little book. This book concerns itself with topics that show how to unscramble poorly written code like: z = y+++x; I dont know anyone who writes code like that!
Probably the best advanced C book in existance... Reviewer: [email protected] from San Francisco, CA August 4, 1999 Clearly written and well organized, this book presents more than 20 _highly_ useful library interfaces for containers, string management, mathematics, and memory management. There isn't a line of code in the whole book that you couldn't take and use, verbatim, in a project today --- after reading this book, you'll probably never have a compelling reason to write a string library or a hash table interface again. 2ff7e9595c
