Book About C Programming

[Digitalrat]

I once learned C but after using it some months I forgot about it completly because I was busy with other thinks. Because I want to begin programming again I would like to refresh my knowledge reading a nice book about C programming. So could anyone suggest me a nice book which describes the C basics concisely and clearly?

Thanks, I'll take a look at this. I normally don't like wikibooks, though, as most of them are either uncomplete or bloated somehow. (or a mix of these two :unsure

For me C All-in-one Desk Reference for Dummies is a really good book. It is really well written and has most of the info needed to learn C from no programming experience or even as a reference book.

K&R all the way !

If you need more precise informations, get the Harbison & Steele.

It you need more precise informations, get the normative reference.

You won't need anything else than those three.

This is the one I bought, like 15 years ago or so. I still use it for reference.
You can get the dirt cheap Indian edition which has the blue cover from eBay for... dirt cheap prices.

Thanks for all of your replys. I'll take a look at the suggested books.

K & R is mandatory but a couple newer reads I really liked were from the Que published By Example series, "Linux Programming", and "Linux Socket Programming", make a nice complete reference set. I found them in the half price bin a Fry's, unbelievable bargain, went back and bought my nephews a copy each too.
