Here is what people are saying about the Expert C Programming
5 Star Rating  "Expert C Language"2009-07-23
- Reviewed By soon_yau
A better title for this book is "Expert C Language". It is more like a English grammar book that give you fundamental yet in-depth knowledge about C programming language itself, rather than something like writing database in C.

Any programmer can write a Hello World program in C, but not everyone understand "char * const * (*next)()". If you wonder what it is, then dive into the chapter "Unscrambling declaration in C" which benefit me the most. The most confusing thing to begininer about C is probably the pointers, you get *ptr, **ptr, (int *)ptr, void (*ptr)(), int (*ptr)[]. If you have got no clue about these and you want to be an expert, then this is the book for you.

The down side about this book is, it is a bit dated, therefore it didn't include C99 standard that were published after this book. You would see some K&R style programming that seems like violation or bug to younger folks.

I would definitely recommend this book to every C programmer working at low-level software such as embedded software and device driver.
 
5 Star Rating  "Collection of useful ideas from an experienced compiler writer"2009-04-11
- Reviewed By User: A2UM22UK7UL7XS
The author is a compiler writer, this is the biggest strength of this book other than the humor side. I already know most of the facts, but he explains everything from a compiler perspective, for example:

Arrays start at 0 rather than 1. Most people start counting at 1, rather than zero. Compiler-writers start with zero because we're used to thinking in terms of offsets. This is sometimes tough on non-compiler-writers; although a[100] appears in the definition of an array, you'd better not store any data at a[100], since a[0] to a[99] is the extent of the array.

Although the book is a little dated, the following chapters are still fun and inspiring to read:

Chapter 5. Thinking of Linking
Chapter 6. Poetry in Motion: Runtime Data Structures
Chapter 7. Thanks for the Memory

Plus, I also enjoy his humor as everyone did:

"To this day, many C programmers believe that 'strong typing' just means pounding extra hard on the keyboard."

 
5 Star Rating  "Great book and service"2008-09-16
- Reviewed By User: A36GV6NRW8EXW9
I had this book in PDF format before and liked it so much that I bought the book. An excellent book for advanced c/c++ programmers, a very good insight in linker, assembler. The book is all you need to learn many ambiguities of c.
Also, the book arrived in condition as described. Great service.
 
5 Star Rating  "Title says it all"2008-09-15
- Reviewed By User: A1LVAFFBQDQ5WF
One of the best books I have seen on C programming. Interesting stories and author's ability to explain dusty corners of C language are really appreciated. I wish someone could have recommended this book to me during school days. Anyway, it is never late to read this book.
 
3 Star Rating  "Expert on C, not expert on programming in C"2008-08-27
- Reviewed By mschuerig
This book helps you on the way of becoming an expert on the C programming language, it is not much help for the purpose of becoming an expert on programming in C.

What's the difference? Well, on the dimension from language lawyer to poet, this book falls more on the lawyerish side. In the same way that grammatically correct sentences in a natural language are rarely great poetry, so correct C programs are not necessarily great programs. Correctness is necessary, yes, but hardly sufficient.

Van der Linden has little to say (or if he has, he doesn't tell) about topics such as good style at a small scale and doesn't at all touch how to structure programs at the large scale. Things like how to avoid name clashes, structure header files, handle errors, avoid resource leaks.

The C programming language is still very much alive, and as far as I can tell, the place on the shelf for a book on C Patterns & Idioms is still vacant, waiting to be filled.
 
5 Star Rating  "Pure Depressing Awesomeness"2008-08-17
- Reviewed By User: A2CPNY78WLNCBE
Every programmer should read this richly detailed tutorial for/polemic against the C programming language. While it will certainly help programmers improve the quality of their C code, it also shows definitively why developing reliable C software will always be far more difficult than it needs to be. This is one of the finest software engineering books I have ever read.
