Perfect for Beginners
I'm only giving this 4 stars because I haven't gotten halfway through the book yet, but so far so good. This is truly for beginners if you want to learn C it has tips,side notes, examples in code and then in English. It's short chapters easy to read and keeps your attention. I was going to get a "for dummies" book but I believe a made a great choice in choosing this one instead
