A First Book of ANSI C: Fundamentals of C Programming

This text implements the ANSI C Standard in all discussions and example programs. An early emphasis on software engineering and top-down modular program development makes it accessible to students taking a first programming course. Early introduction and careful development of pointers show students the power of good programming. It includes new chapter supplements on abstraction, searching and sorting, and graphics. New material on dynamic memory allocation including stacks and queues. Two new chapters introduce C++. The book also includes many carefully developed program examples, exercises after each section, common programming error sections, new "tips from the pros" boxes, new "a closer look" boxes, and chapter summaries.
