This elementary level text on C targets first-time programmers and implements a subset approach, acknowledging that C encompasses much material and many pitfalls. This unusual text uses "experiments" to guide students to discover things for themselves and directs students in learning many of the subleties and intricacies of C through hands-on examples. The author's inviting writing style is especially appealing to novice programmers. C for Yourself is suitable as a supplement in an elementary computer science course for computer science majors as well as a course for non-majors or a community college C course.
It is often said that C is a dream for professionals, but a nightmare for beginners. This elementary level text on C targets first-time programmers as it has been expressly designed so that beginners can avoid those nightmares. Using clear, down to earth language, the book presents a carefully chose subset of C powerful enough for solving non-trivial programming problems, yet simple enough so that a novice can steer clear of the pitfalls. Unique to this book are several dozen experiments that elucidate various ideas, and encourage the reader to explore further (and realize that by experimenting, one can answer many questions on one's own).
