I want to learn C and I know there are quite a few programmers on this

over everything from scratch.  So if I could get some referrals to a
couple of books I would greatly appreciate it. I am looking for a good
thorough beginners guide to C and also something for the intermediate
programmer as I expect to get through the former in fairly short
order. I ultimately will be directing my efforts at kernel hacking.


get "harbison & steele" and start reading the kernel source.

Thanks to all,
