+1 to https://hal.inria.fr/hal-02383654 https://hal.inria.fr/hal-02383654. It covers the language in extreme depth, and you likely won't remember it all on a first read but you'll walk away with a pretty good general understanding of the language. Plus, the author is an active contributor to the language. I love C. As dangerous and as tedious it can be for large projects, I think it's my top choice for solo endeavors that don't require too many string manipulations. I don't think any language has come close to achieving the same balance of elegance and simplicity--maybe scheme? (zig comes close but has a substantial number of features that move it away from simplicity (e.g. payload capture))
