Book review: "C" as a second laguage: For Native Speakers of Pascal by Tomasz Muldner & Peter W. Steele (Addison-Wesley: MA, 1988)

Brent Auemheimer · ACM SIGCHI Bulletin · 1989

Beginning computer science students frequently ask their professors to recommend a book about C programming. These students usually know Pascal, have a vague idea that C is an important language, and know that C will be used in their upper level courses to come.

In their preface, the authors describe the book's intended audience as "students, professional programmers, and computer hobbyists studying C on their own" (Muldner, p. v). Experience in Pascal programming is assumed.
