Both are classics. I have partly read the K&R book, and it is THE reference book for C. Mind you it isn't geared toward beginners, but for someone who is familiar with basic concepts of programming, this is a fine book. However, the second edition (which I thkink is the last one to date) is written in 88 or 89, and it addresses ANSI C 89 standard, not the newer C 99, so if you want to start with the newest rules, look else weher. Of course most compilers are fully backward compatible, and most of the have not yet fully implemented C 99, so C 89 is still a widely used. Also Arash, please in the future do not put parantheses in the name of the file, cause many download managers like wget and axel have problems with it. The book by Bjarne Stroustrup has parantheses in the file name. Thanks for making them available digitally. It is great to have them on my computer. -- <!-- People can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy.
