Can anyone please refer me to some very useful books for a beginner. Stuff that has become in use in the past.

I am really looking to enlarge my knowledge of programming, and I am pretty sure C is the place to start.

Thanks

I believe Wrox do C programming books too?

www.wrox.com I'm not sure, but try there.

C for Wrox is ok-ok, not that great but try "C How to program, Introducing C++ and Java" Third Edition by Deitel & Deitel.. Many sites spoke highly about that book so I bought it and it s great!

I asked my bro to get me one, he is studying to be a software engineer and he has all these books, they actually threw me off track.

Thanks GoldKnight and n9ne

Any book by Sams Publishing rocks. http://www.sams.com/

Have books on C++, Visual Basic, and PHP by them and all are great.

C = AHHHHHHH >(

DrkFusion · #7 11-20-2002, 08:31 PM

Uhh So what is the difference?

C looks horrible to read and is not OO.

If you have a Hastings in your area there are some excellent selections of Beginners C++ and Advanced C++ books

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
