Re: C tutorial for Perl programmers?

There are two good sources from which one can learn C. I recommend using both.

The first is K&R. The second is Learn C The Hard Way. I recommend using both to learn the language - the first is beautifully concise, the second has lots of handy tips and more examples.

You will need the second to learn the toolchain. K&R hardly (at all? I disremember) mentions 'make' or tells you how to link. LCTHW has whole chapters on them, as well as chapters on testing and debugging.

LCTHW looks perfect, thanks for the tip. I might be able to adapt it for Perl fairly quickly. Starting with doing a search and delete for every instance of "stupid", "asshole" and "women should stop whining".	[reply]
