Advanced C: Tips and Techniques |
||
| Paul L. Anderson & Gail C. Anderson | ||
|
From the authors: "A major goal of our book is to present advanced techniques often shared by experienced C programmers but have little or no documentation. Our approach to Advanced C is somewhat different than other books on the subject. Rather than show you how to translate data structures (linked lists, binary trees, etc.) or port algorithms (sorting and searching) from other languages, we develop techniques from unique parts of C that don't exist in other languages. Although this makes some of our techniques not applicable to other languages, it doesn't make them any less valuable." | |

Learn C programming from one of
the best. Stephen Kochan’s Programming in C is thorough with
easy-to-follow instructions that are sure to benefit beginning
programmers. In its third edition, the style in this book remains true
to the simple, instructional style of previous editions. It provides you
with updated and relevant examples of how C programming can be used with
small, fast programs, similar to the programming used by large game
developers such as Nintendo. If you want a one-stop-source for C
programming, this book is it! Programming in C, Third Edition is a revised edition of a classic programming title. Author Stephen Kochan's style and thorough explanations have earned him a place among the most respected of computer book authors. Although the C programming language hasn't undergone any major changes, it's enjoying new life among game programmers and small device programmers, where its simple elegance makes it the ideal choice for small fast programs. Large game developers, such as Nintendo, use C almost exclusively. This edition combines the time-tested instructional style of Stephen Kochan with updated and relevant examples. |

Programming in Objective-C |
||
| Stephen Kochan | ||
|
Objective-C has become the
standard programming language for application development under Mac OS
X. It is a powerful yet simple object-oriented programming language that
is based on the C programming language. Objective -C is widely available
across many operating systems that support the gcc compiler, including
Linux, Unix, and Windows systems. Programming in Objective-C provides the beginner programmer with a complete introduction to the Objective-C language. Unlike other books on Objective-C, it does not assume previous experience with either C or object-oriented programming languages. By using many complete examples and taking a step-by-step approach, the book teaches the reader how to write Objective-C programs on any system that supports the Objective-C language, as well as how to use the Foundation framework to develop portable programs that will run on any system supporting Objective-C. |

Unix Shell Programming, Third Edition |
||
| Stephen Kochan & Patrick Wood | ||
|
Unix Shell Programming is
a tutorial aimed at helping Unix and Linux users get optimal performance
out of their operating out of their operating system. It shows them how
to take control of their systems and work efficiently by harnessing the
power of the shell to solve common problems. The reader learns
everything he or she needs to know to customize the way a Unix system
responds. The vast majority of Unix users utilize the Korn shell or some variant of the Bourne shell, such as bash. Three are covered in the third edition of Unix Shell Programming. It begins with a generalized tutorial of Unix and tools and then moves into detailed coverage of shell programming. Topics covered include: regular expressions, the kernel and the utilities, command files, parameters, manipulating text filters, understanding and debugging shell scripts, creating and utilizing variables, tools, processes, and customizing the shell. |
