Ever wished you could learn C from a book? Head First C provides a
complete learning experience for C and structured imperative
programming. With a unique method that goes beyond syntax and how-to
manuals, this guide not only teaches you the language, it helps you
understand how to be a great programmer. You'll learn key areas such as
language basics, pointers and pointer arithmetic, and dynamic memory
management. Advanced topics include multi-threading and network
programming--topics typically covered on a college-level course.
This book also features labs: in-depth projects intended to stretch your
abilities, test your new skills, and build confidence. Head First C
mimics the style of college-level C courses, making it ideal as an
accessible textbook for students.
We think your time is too valuable to waste struggling with new
concepts. Using the latest research in cognitive science and learning
theory to craft a multi-sensory learning experience, Head First C uses a
visually rich format designed for the way your brain works, not a
text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep.
