I'll start with the superior book for C by Kernigham and Ritchie.
After thourougly reading and doing its tasks, everyone should be able to program C after.
As much as I like this book, the example code is way too clever for it's own good, and it's certainly not shit you want to be inflicting on new C programmers, they'll get the wrong idea and produce shit code and think it's totally normal.
Eskimo class notes > k&r.
Memes aside, which books are recommended for a well rounded CS education?

Damn, i agree with OP.
that book is pretty nice, I'm having C classes and already have learned half of the stuff by myself
>>61679815
I think the in-depth part is a bit short and lack a bit of motivation on further projects,
beside that i agree it's a pretty nice book to start with.
Btw can anybody recommend a good book for D ?
I'm not really profound on books shilled langs own sites..
Learning Python and Programming Python by Lutz are really good.
What books can I learn c sharp from? I have a good grasp on the basics of programming, arrays,list,logic, etc. Pic unrelated
This book is highly technical, but contains everything you ever could possibly know about C++
The Complete C++ Reference
Herbert Schildt

>Implying c++ is still feasable
>>61679704
That's not a book for learning C. It's a reference guide for programmers who already know C.
>>61679704
the exercises in this book are too hard
Anyone read the new Kevin Parnell book?

Recommend something better..

Maybe programming isn't the right thing for you then..

First year CS student here, any references more geared towards beginner/intermediate c++ students?

you may want to check out this free online course from sololearn:
https://www.sololearn.com/Course/CPlusPlus/
the questions in it are really basic, but if you take your time and read through the modules, there is a lot of good information there.
classes are probably the most important thing to know in C++. get good with classes. they are extremely powerful, and can do amazing things when you learn to use them correctly.

What about Practical C Programing (O'Reilly)
>>61683420
Something better? Easy: Modern C, by Jens Gustedt.
K&R is mostly a reference book.
