    Where to go from here?

    Okay..
    I can read / write / understand any book on C.
    When I say any book I mean any "Learn C" sort of book.

    My problem now is.. How do I learn more.
    The most advanced project I have made was an IRC bot.
    I'm not talking about Windows programming or UI programming.
    I'm more so talking bout writing kernel modules on Linux systems etc etc.
    When I look at kernel source I'm lost.

    Example::
    printk();

    How / where / why would I even know that.
    Is there a place where I should read up on?

    So again, it seems i have a strong grip on the theory of the language but I just get lost when looking at big projects.

    This is the same with C++

    Programming is much more than simply learning the syntax for the language.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
