    The dragon book is one commonly cited resource, but eh, maybe aim a little lower with a simplified version of C.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Or try your college library.

    We will not help you find "warez" rip-offs.
    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.

    This link should show local library with the book; at least it does for USA libraries.
    You need to enter your local location for it to work.
