Advanced C Programming by Example

Advanced C Programming by Example by Perry, John W.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780534951405.

This practical, example-driven, code-centered book is intended for intermediate-level C programmers who want to take their skills to the next level. The book builds on readers existing background in C to complete their knowledge of ANSI C libraries, and the conceptual and syntactic structures needed to master dynamic data structures, string parsing and numeric conversion, memory management, bit-level manipulation, interactions with operating systems, and other advanced techniques. What sets this book apart from traditional data structures books is its "blue collar" approach to the art of programming -- how to master the "down in the trenches" C details to implement abstract ideas successfully. In recognition of this approach, the book presents actual C code rather than pseudocode.
