Comments posted online for C Programming – A Beginner's Course: "The text does a great job of explaining concepts and the examples are pretty good." "It covers a lot of ideas and concepts that are left out of the other beginner books." "This book does such a good job at explaining the fundamentals of the language..." "This is a great book for anyone new to C programming" "The clearest explanation of sorting and searching algorithms I've read. A gem, the best kept secret on the internet." "I was amazed at the number of sidenotes/comments in the chapters that I did not learn in college." This book is intended for anyone who is learning programming for the first time. The main goal is to teach fundamental programming principles using C, a popular language used in schools and industry. However, the book is more about teaching programming basics than it is about teaching C. Basic programming proficiency requires that you know, at least, the following: the primitive data types of the language (integer, floating-point, character); how to write input/output statements; how to write conditional statements (if, if...else); how to write looping statements (while, for); how to write functions and how to declare and use arrays. But, more importantly, you need to be able to write programs to solve problems using these features. This book explains all of the above in an easy, conversational style. To learn programming well you must write programs. The exercises are a very rich source of problems, a result of the author's forty-odd years in the teaching of programming.

Background: i have a BS degree in electrical engineering. I took several programming classes in college (assembly, c, c++, hdl). I graduated 7 years ago, and have begun work on my masters degree. I am currently preping to take a programming class, and my work for the past 7 years has not included any c or c++ programming. I felt like this was a good time to relearn c. I ordered all three books in this series (beginner, advanced, and data structures). I am just about finished with the first book in the series and wanted to write my thoughts on the book.

As i said above, i have had previous experience with the c programming language and I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for refresher book on the topic. When I decided to 'relearn' c, i pulled out my old books, and quickly decided that I would never be able to force myself to go through these books again. My college text books contained paragraph after paragraph of unnecssary text. I also searched for some 'how to program in c' web pages, and found some lesson plans that were ok. I prefer having a good text book to fall back on, so i searched for c books online. Based on the reviews (and the price) for these three books, i ordered them and waited to see if they were what i was looking for.

This book contains a large font, with a fair amount of white space on the pages. Some people may be turned off by this, but you must examine the quality of what is written not the quantity of words. The text does a great job of explaining concepts and the examples are pretty good. I went through the first 1/2 of the book in a week doing a little bit each night after work. As I was going through these chapters, I was amazed at the number of sidenotes/comments in the chapters that I did not learn in college. I am using this as a refresher book, but it does appear that this text would be a great tool for anyone willing to learn c on their own. I have not read the final sections, but this book does such a good job at explaing the fundamentals of the language that I feel like I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a beginners book for c programming.

This is a great book for anyone new to programming (or in my case new to C programming). Each chapter ends with 20-30 exercises ranging from very simple to challenging. It covers a lot of ideas and concepts that are left out of the other beginner books I've read. It focuses on using a small amount of info to solve a wide variety of problems. I've almost completed the exercises in the book and am excited about reading Kalicharan's next two books in the series, Advanced C Programming and Data Structures in C.

The author does not clearly define every command leaving newcomer to C programming wondering WHAT!!! I don't know about later chapter but after flipping through chapter 1 and 2, this book SUCK!!! Highly NOT recommended!!!

Clear, simple and to the point. The perfect place to begin. The clearest explanation of sorting and searching algorithms I've read. A gem, the best kept secret on the internet.

Actually, this book is the first of a serie of three books, all of them are clear simple and to the point, where other books are too wordy, clear as mud and expensive.

From beginner to beginner, you want to begin programming the right way, do yourself a favour, buy "C programming - A beginner's course".

You want to learn more, do yourself a favour, buy "C Programming - An Advanced Course" and "Data Structures in C" by professor Kalicharan.

After reading this book, I am mildly disappointed. As a novice, I wanted a simple introduction to programming principles. The description and reviews led me to think this book was a good place to start. In the Preface, the author states that "this book is more about teaching programming basics than it is about teaching C." I find this assertion misleading. The book focuses solely on C language (its vocabulary, syntax, structure and use), but its coverage of this is shallow and incomplete at best. For example, the switch/case statement and the concept of pointers are omitted. There are websites and other books with far more complete and logical presentations of the mechanics of the language. As far as general programming principles, this book is nearly devoid of any but the most rudimentary ideas of storage, sequences and loops. I found the tone of the writing to be a little condescending, explanations to be spotty and the presentation of the ideas to be disorganized. Another issue I have is that while the author includes numerous questions and problems at the end of each chapter, there is no answer key. What is the point if you can not check your answers? If you are interested in learning strategies for tackling a problem with programming techniques, this is not the book. If you are looking to learn C language, this treatment is just a glimpse.
