    written by : DENIS RICHIEE ( creator of 'c') nice book to understand c.
    It turns out that Mr. Ritchie has actually written several books, but you are probably talking about The C Programming Language, 2nd Ed. Please post with all the necessary information next time.

    We're using "Programming, Problem Solving, and Abstraction with C" by Alistair Moffat at uni.
    It's extremely good, it is a from scratch book. It has lots of good diagrams and lots of code. It explains things really well for people who have never programmed before. It also teaches good style and teaches good ways of doing things.
    The other thing that the author has done through the book is explain the process of designing programs properly so that you don't run into problems because of how complex your program has become.
