Book Reviews :: Let us C by Yashavant Kanetkar

Note: Many readers have pointed out that some things I claim here are wrong (including the portability issue). Note that this article was written way back in 1999-2000, it may be absolutely irrelevent to later editions of the book. I haven't kept myself updated with the later editions, so please do not rely on this review.. Also note If any of the readers have a review of the later versions, please get in touch with me, I'll upload your reviews here.

The obsolete review follows:

I feel the worthy title for this book would be Let us TC rather than Let us C . This book assumes that you are using Turbo C / Turbo C++ compiler from Borland international . Most of the code in the book is temptingly cool but mostly non-portable .

If you wanna dive directly into programming professional packages using C then this is the book for you. This book arms you with knowledge on various things like mouse programming , graphics programming etc. but all this is specific to Turbo C compiler . So dont complain if you end up with grossly non-portable C code after reading this book.

Also you might feel like you are programming in some alien language if you switch to C programming in Linux/Unix etc. if you have studied from this book.
