"Let Us C", nevertheless, a good book.
It is a horrible book. I strongly oppose the idea that one needs to begin with it. Just consider the fact that Yashwant Kanitkar teaches you the difference of: i++ + ++i + i++ and i++ + i++ + i++, which is simply undefined in the C standard and yet Kanitkar stresses on this, instead of telling the reader to avoid writing such code.
Ok. I don't want to shock many people here. And before I saysomething, I must say, I did read LUC as my first C book (I think) and found it good as well. The point is many people who start new with C ( maybe without any programming exp ) find it easy to start with - that's the reason its good - other wise its not.
I started with Gottfried's book, and when I finally came to Let Us C, I found it sick.
But honestly, one needs to have a copy of K&R if you are into C.
Very true.
And if you are doing C++, please read Stroustoup after you
Robert Lafore's book is also nice although he does not use GCC in it.
