		Also worth noting on this chart is that book sales tend to spike even before the release of commercial languages, as the vendors work with publishers to get books out by the release date, while books on open source projects tend to trail the release date.
		CS students probablby learn C, C++ and Java in their undergrad programs and don't have much need for additional books beyond their texts for these languages.
		Books are no longer a good indicator, On-demand printing, blogging, and forums are nowdays the fast and best way to adquire knowledge on a language.

	C programming language information - Search.com (Site not responding. Last check: )
		C is distinguished for the efficiency of the code it produces, and is the most commonly used programming language for writing system software, though it is also widely used for writing applications.
		As a result, it is possible to write C code at a low level of abstraction analogous to assembly language; in fact C is sometimes referred to (and not always pejoratively) as "high-level assembly" or "portable assembly." It is also sometimes referred to as a mid-level language.
		C is used as an intermediate language by some high-level languages (Eiffel, Sather, Esterel) which do not output object or machine code, but output C source code only, which is then input to a C compiler, which then outputs finished object or machine code.

	The C Programming Language (book) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The C Programming Language (sometimes referred to as KandR) is a well-known computer science book written by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, the latter of whom originally designed and implemented the language (as well as co-designed the UNIX operating system with whose development the language was closely intertwined).
		In 1988 the second edition of the book was published, updated to cover the changes to the C programming language resulting from the new ANSI C standard, particularly with the inclusion of reference material on standard libraries.
		For example, the coding and formatting style of the programs presented in both editions of the book is often referred to as "KandR style" or the "One True Brace Style" and, significantly, became the coding style used by convention in the source code for the UNIX and Linux kernels.

	JakeO.com - History of the C Programming Language
		The C programming language and its direct descendants are by far the most popular programming languages used in the world today.
		C is now such a popular programming language that there have been several descendants from it that are in wide use.
		C is also a very lenient language; it allows the programmer to do many things that probably would be caught as errors in a high-level language.

	Security Forums :: View topic - Book Review - The C++ Programming Language, Special Edition
		C++ is often used in graphics, sound and system programming, and demonstrates its power, speed and flexibility in a diverse range of situations.
		This book covers not only the core C++ language, but also the C++ STL (Standard Template Library), a flexible generic programming toolkit, and does so with a comprehensive yet comfortable approach to informing the reader.
		While this book does not cover every aspect of the STL, or Templates in minute detail, it does introduce and discuss the major concepts, those which should be adequate for most C++ work, and the coverage of the core language is unparalleled.

	The C++ Programming Language, Special Edition (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The pace of the book is unbalanced, there seems to be little attempt to build you knowledge, rather it reads like more of a brain dump as the level of complexity varies wildly from paragraph to paragraph.
		The language is explained through the use of a lot of examples that in reality are true insights on programming techniques.
		The problem is that you learn them together with the language and the OO notions, so if you are a novice they could not receive the deserved attention (and perhaps they don't have the deserved space in the book.

	The C Programming Language \| zZine Magazine (Site not responding. Last check: )
		C is based on the languages BCPL and B, hence the name C. B was written in 1970 by Ken Thompson for the first version of Unix, which ran on the PDP-7 computer.
		All versions of Unix since the development of C have been written in C, and most versions of MS-DOS were also written in C. Programmers writing systems programs in C have the entire computer under their control.
		C has many strengths - it is flexible and portable, it can produce fast, compact code, it provides the programmer with objects to create and manipulate complex structures (e.g classes in C++) and low level routines to control hardware (e.g input and output ports and operating system interrupts).

	drx: C Programming [Computers: Programming: Languages: C] - loadaverageZero
		C is a very simple, compact and low-level programming language—leading some to describe it as a “high-level assembler.” As such, software produced from it is extremely fast and efficient, making it the dominate language for system and server software, and even many applications.
		C is a popular programming language, designed for low-level Unix systems programming but expanded to cover a variety of applications.
		The C programming language was devised in the early 1970s as a system implementation language for the nascent Unix operating system.

	Book Review: The C# Programming Language by Anders Hejlsberg
		And the new title “The C# Programming Language”, co-authored by Anders Heljsberg, a Microsoft distinguished engineer and the creator of the C# language, is such a source.
		It’s not intended to be a comprehensive tutorial to C# development; it’s a programmer’s reference, profiling the internal mechanics behind the world’s most rapidly-adopted programming language.
		In my opinion, the book’s one major flaw is the misnomer is gives off to the buyer, which unfairly at this point in the.NET game, implies the de facto expectation for a self-help book on learning various aspects of Microsoft development.

	The C Programming Language : ANSI C Version (K&R Book)
		a software engineering approach>(3ed), is a good example: it does a better job cleaning the dusty corners of C. for this KandR's book, one thing i don't understand is that they seem to be obssessed with using string processing functions as examples.
		Once you are comfortable programming in C, however, this is the one book you want next to you (and it will likely be the ONLY reference book you will ever need for straight ANSI C).
		Since it was written by the original authors of the C language, it's hard to imagine anyone being more authoritative on the subject, and although there's little hand-holding, it is well-written and pleasant enough to read through cover-to-cover.

	O'Reilly Media \| Programming Perl
		Programming Perl is not just a book about Perl; it is also a unique introduction to the language and its culture, as one might expect only from its authors.
		The one point that does bite is that the book is not rigidly structured but it does not race too far forward that you are left with an example that is not understandable.
		This is the only book I have used so far so I can not make a better judgement but there were lot of places where it makes reference to c++ programming and unix commands and talk about it a lot.

	Boxer Underground - October 2000 Book Review
		And it’s done in the same easy-to-absorb format as the other tremendously popular for Dummies books for beginners that the patrons of my library check out by the armful to teach themselves what they need to know about everything from the C+ programming language to...which breed of dog is right for their family.
		Although the book contains the requisite sections devoted to whether the breed is right for your family ("Boxers: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly"), training ("Do!"), breeding ("Don’t"), and health care, the advice is anything but generic.
		Boxers for Dummies is the ideal book to send home with a new puppy buyer, or to tuck in the Christmas stocking of a friend or co-worker who, after listening to you go on and on about your boxers, is contemplating one of his own.

	Amazon.com: The C Programming Language (2nd Edition): Books: Brian W. Kernighan,Dennis M. Ritchie (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The book focuses on the language itself - this is no hands-on book (no explanations on how to use this compiler or that debugger, though it is a little biased toward Unix) in a clear, concise, and thorough way covering all of the language and it's standard libraries.
		This book is not for people who study C as their first programming language (those would be better served with a pair of books - a first course in programming and compiler guide).
		Though this book might not be for the absolute beginners in programming, it gives a great insight in C (and C++ sometimes) both for the newbie as well as the pro programmer.

	Que Publishing - 073571228X - Perl for C Programmers
		As the title of the book suggests, this is targeted at C (and C++) programmers.
		If the camel book ("programming perl") is too detailed to the point of ad nauseum, this book is too shallow, and if you just rely on this book to learn Perl, you still won't be able to understand 80% of the code you might encounter.
		The feeling after reading the book was really one of emptiness, like the $18-per-head buffet I had last month on the Scotia Prince ferry that only served lettuce and tomatoes and roast beef and lobster shells.

	Amazon.ca: C Programming Language: Books: Brian W. Kernighan,Dennis Ritchie (Site not responding. Last check: )
		An indisputably classic computing text, Kernighan and Ritchie's The C Programming Language, 2nd Edition, is the standard reference for learning and using ANSI C. Written by the co-inventors of C, this concise tutorial has a well-deserved reputation for clarity and precision as it defines one of the most successful programming languages of all time.
		C is still a great first programming language, and its influence is felt in Java and C++, both of which support many programming constructs based on C, while adding support for objects.
		This book is meant to help the reader learn how to program in C. The book assumes some familiarity with basic programming concepts like variables, assignment statements, loops, and functions.
