Review title: Not helpful
Product review: I bought this book over a decade ago, in a rush to learn things that I needed. I recall it was a distinct waste of time. I'm no expert in C, so I needed tips. In the end, I favored other books that provided examples along with anecdotes. This book seemed to be much more focused on exhibiting how clever the author is, instead of actually helping me pull myself up by the bootstraps. The book I actually leaned on for advice (and I did write some code at the time) was Pointers on C by Kenneth Reek.Save your money, look for another resource.
