%T   "C How to Program"
 
Among the teachers I hang out with, "Deitel" is known as *the* C programming
text.  With good reason.  The material is clear and organized, and gives lie to
the old belief that C could not be a "first" programming language.
 
A summary, list of new terminology, list of common errors, and a list of good
programming practices accompany each chapter.  In addition, there are two sets
of exercises: one with the answers provided, and one without.
 
The final quarter of the book extends C into C++, with excellent coverage of
the concepts underlying object orientation.
