Beginning Programming with C For Dummies

Learn the basics of programming with C with this fun and friendly guide!

C is the best place to start programming, and Dan Gookin's here to lead the way! C offers a reliable, strong foundation for programming and serves as a stepping stone upon which to expand your knowledge and learn additional programming languages.

Behold the foundation of almost every programming language: the venerable C. Learn this one, and the others will come easily — plus, you can start telling computers, tablets, and other gizmos what to do. Dan Gookin walks you through the process in his characteristic way, with simple instructions, demonstrations, examples, and exercises — and a dash of fun.
