This book is a must have and you must have read it at least once. Then again, I have read it once and will only use it as a quick reference. For more elaborate information I will look for (my) other books that will tell the same in a more fluent and up to date style (read: Expert C Programming). This book shows all the pitfalls in a convenient compact volume. If you are NOT a sloppy programmer you might dislike many of the more obvious examples . . then again, you might do some maintenance on "someone else's code". esbach_w
Along with Holub's 'The C Companion', this is one of the few programming books that I've read in 13 years of C programming that talks about real programming issues instead of simply rehashing what a for loop is. A must read for C programmers. Anonymous
