What I'm looking for is any advice on where I can get
this info. Preferably free docs and how-to's, since I
don't have the cash to buy any books. (Though, I could
try the library's inter-branch loan program. My branch
has no C books and nothing about computers less than
10 years old.)
This is my number-one indispensable reference book for C programming:
The Standard C Libarary, by P.J. Plauger, Prentice Hall, ISBN 0-13-131509-9
Perhaps your library could get it for you, but it is really something
that you want to keep close by. Mine lives on the shelf right beside my
computer, along with several "friends".
That's the third book in my C "trinity". The others are:
Kernighan and Ritchie, The C Programming Language 2nd Edition, Prentice
Hall, ISBN-10: 0-13-110362-8.
Harbison and Steele, C: A Reference Manual 5th Edition, Prentice Hall,
ISBN 0-13-089592X.
