Re: suggest me a good C book
I found Programming in ANSI C by balagurusamy useful then that of Kanetkar's.

Re: suggest me a good C book
Yes, Let Us C by Yashwant Kanetkar is good for beginners.
For advanced programming, Object Oriented Programming in Turbo C++ by Robert Lafore is good.
For free e-books, google search can help u.

Re: suggest me a good C book
I wud say start with Let us C by Yashwant Kanetkar.
It will clear ur basics pretty fairly and then u wont need any books, u will start to master it.
to know the strength of c, u can even read c projects by yashwant kanetkar.
I dont think these books are legally available for downloads. But they are pretty cheap. 180/- for Let Us C and 350/- for C Projects.
There is a cheaper version of C Projects which comes without a disk

Re: suggest me a good C book
let him learn C first then C++... dude first scan all pages of Kanitkar if u r a newbie then it will take you 20 to 30 days...
Then try ur brain on "Test Ur C Skills" and "C under Dos test" if u come out successfully with it having enough confidence then go to some "C" forum solve some issues there....
Then move to C++...
Coz Strong Base is a must.... If ur C is strong then u can cramp C++ like a ground nut

Re: suggest me a good C book
May I suggest to you -
The C Programming Language
by Brian W. Kernighan And Dennis M. Ritchie
I've read many books for C, even Let us C and Programming in ANSI C by E Balagurusamy, but I couldn't find a book to match the The C Programming Language. And anyways, who can give you a better and more detailed explanation than the developer of the language himself? I suggest you go for the second edition.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_(programming_language)

Re: suggest me a good C book
First Kanetkar, if you are a total newbie to programming.
then Balgursamy,
Third comes Robert Lafore.
Dennis Ritchie is a good book but only after reading the above three

The book by Dennis Ritchie is not for beginners.

Re: suggest me a good C book
You can also do the same with balagurusamy. Its pretty easy and simple.. and rather very perfect..But, you will find lot of things which are usually not necessary in normal instances.. If you wanna learn fast... then go for Kanitkar.. or go for Balagurusamy.
