I'm overwhelmed that my textbook is an alternate selection for anything but an intro class in C for technology students!! If anyone would like his/her copy autographed, .... :-) To prevent disappointment, please be aware that the book is a textbook for a freshman-level course, and is heavily oriented toward electric circuits applications. If you're not into electric circuits and/or have more than a passing knowledge of C, it ain't for you EXCEPT to make me unconscionably pleased with myself!! :-) As with every other textbook I've used for this course, the students still refuse to read it! I'm even giving test points for discovering errors and only two or three will even open the book. Such is life in an open-enrollment college!! Thanks again, Pete -- Prof. Peter J.
