Wanting to learn C...

[Ronnie]

Hey Guys,

 

For a while now I've been wanting to learn a programming language and am needing money. My plan was to develop for the IOS platform since IOS apps (for the most part) generate the most income. However, I dont want to go straight to learning objective C so I was wondering what your opinions are. I was considering learning C first since it is very similar and a better basis to go off of.

 

Also, concerning that, does anyone know good C/Objective C tutorials? I have books but I learn better visually and was just curious if there are any videos out there.

 

Thanks.

 

Ronnie

Get a copy of The C Programming Language by Ritchie and Kernighan, read through it and do all of the exercises. It is a really easy introduction to C.

yup!

Give yourself little projects to complete too, as you go along. it's all about practicing the logic and writing efficient code. syntax is the easy part.

I had a very awful teacher for C so my knowledge of it is minimal. I recommend you take your time and understand what is happening.

Yup, I can vouch for that book, it's really good IMO. And since C is not a very

complex language in and of itself (mind you, C programs can be horrendously

complicated, but the language itself is pretty slim, especially compared to

bloated stuff such as C++ or Java), it's actually prett short and it shouldn't

take you too long to work through it.
