Computer programming & software development

The world runs on code written in the C programming language, yet most schools begin the curriculum with Python or Java. Effective C bridges this gap and brings C into the modern era - updated to the latest C23 standard. With the aid of this instant classic, you'll soon be writing professional, portable, and secure C programs to power robust systems and solve real-world problems. Robert C. Seacord introduces C and the C standard library while addressing best practices, common errors, and open debates in the C community. Developed together with other C standards committee experts, Effective C will teach you how to debug, test, and analyse C programs. You'll benefit from Seacord's concise explanations of C language constructs and behaviours, and from his 40 years of coding experience.
