Each chapter includes a project designed around simple games as a fun approach to learning programming. This book will use ANSI C standards and the free gcc compiler as its development platforms. Using these platforms allows the reader to access free software for most operating systems (Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000), Linux and othe UNIX-based OSs. Most competitors assume readers have access to varioius developmental environments. This book uses the free CYGWIN software which will allow readers from any background (UNIX or Microsoft) to easily read, study, and implement chapter contents. Unlike most of the competitors, the author will not deviate from the original target audience by including even minor discussion of advance programming topics, which lose many beginners and fail to satisfy intermediate to advanced programmers.

Acknowledgments

Writing a book is not easy, especially a programming book. It takes many great, patient, and talented people to write, edit, design, layout, market, finance, and produce a book and accompanying CD-ROM. Without the great people at Premier Press, it would be impossible for me to share with you my knowledge of programming in such a professional and fun manner. I especially would like to acknowledge Amy Pettinella for her dedication to this book and her eye for detail. Thanks, Amy! I would also like to thank Todd Jensen and Andy Harris for giving me an opportunity to write a book on C. Thanks guys!

C is one of the most complex programming languages in the computing world and therefore requires a special and talented person to ensure the accuracy of the presented information. This mammoth duty was accepted by Greg Perry, who in his own right is a famous author of many programming and technical books. Greg, thank you very much for sharing your wisdom and years of experience with me. This book would not have been the same without you!

Letter from the Series Editor

If you're interested in computer programming at all, you've probably heard a lot about the C language. C is an incredibly influential programming environment. Practically all popular modern programming languages are based on C. By learning C, you are learning the foundations of perl, JavaScript, Java, C++, C#, and many other languages. The C language has another important distinction. It is more closely related to the actual design of the computer than many other programming languages, which means that by studying C, you will appreciate more fully how computers work. C is also popular because it can be used on practically any operating system, from Linux to Windows to supercomputers.

The elements that make C so popular have also given it a reputation as a difficult language for beginners to learn. However, Michael Vine teaches C in a way that is accessible to beginners without hiding the complexities of the language. Michael knows his way around a programming language. He has been a professional programmer using a number of languages (including C, of course). Knowing how to write a program does not always translate well into writing about programming. Michael has taught programming at the university level for several years, and his experience in the classroom shines through in this book. C programming is a challenging subject, yet Michael has carefully thought through his examples and the order in which it is composed.
