    Learning C

    Hi:

    I am trying to learn C on my own. I am reading a book called
    "Teach Yourself C" and this book was publishe in 1990. Also, I did download a compiler called "Miracle C" and it is shareware which is not free and i HAVE TO END UP PAYING $19.00. Just need some advise. Is this a good start? .

    Thanks

    Sam

    get gcc
    make sure you learn ANSI C
    invest some time into a Unix OS for some miracles with C
    Asking the right question is sometimes more important than knowing the answer.

    There's a bunch of details in the faq (link's on this page).

    Personally, I use Borland's free compiler (under Win98).
    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
