It is published by Springer-Verlag. It discusses both Ansi C and K&R C (the Ansi changes are clearly marked). It also points out pitfalls that the novice programmer is likely to encounter - eg confusing typedef with #define, problems with = and ==, etc. -- Keith Crews Stellar Computer Inc. 95 Wells Avenue, Newton, MA 02159
