My favorite is Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets by Peter van der Linden. I started it as soon as I encountered C at university and could only get through about a chapter at a time. By third year when the assignments in C got hard I was in a great position, partly for this book. Even crazier is I enjoyed it.
- dllthomas 5y agoMy only complaint about that book is the title - by the time I'd got to it I was nodding along to things I'd figured out long before or nitpicking things that were "merely" right enough to be useful. Maybe I was already solidly expert, but I feel like for most things programming the knowledge available is so broad that there will be some significant gaps between experts; in any case, I wish I had picked it up ten years prior.
