Is it something like 'Programing in > C' (e.g., one excellent book by K&R)! I once had Harvey Deitel as a professor. I love their C++ book, "C++ How to Program", but it is a large, complex book. The equivalent C language book is "C How to Program". At Northeastern we used the Deitel book to teach C++ but we used "C Programming: A Modern Approach" by King as it was a simpler book. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@xxxxxxx> Boston Linux and Unix PGP key id: 537C5846 PGP Key fingerprint: 3D1B 8377 A3C0 A5F2 ECBB CA3B 4607 4319 537C 5846
