The Joy of C, Instructor's Manual: Programming in C

Begins with an accessible introduction to C followed by a discussion of its basic features—data types, operators, functions and storage classes. Moves on to advanced data types such as pointers, strings, structures, multidimensional arrays and arrays of pointers. Decribes advanced program structure including use of functions, the preprocessor, generic functions and complex declarations. Lastly, it deals with actual issues, namely external files, portability and efficiency and how to move from programming in C to programming in C++. Pictorial descriptions of data structures and algorithms, end-of-chapter summaries, highlighted trouble spots and likely errors plus plenty of programming exercises make this one of the easiest guidebooks to understand.
