[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Need refs to heelpful books for teaching C

cjoslyn@bingvaxu.cc.binghamton.edu (Cliff Joslyn) (12/12/89)

Hello.

I have been thrown into teaching a course in C to a group of new
programmers next semester.  We're using K+R 2 as a text and Turbo
C/Professional on PS/2's.  I'm looking for references to books that
might be useful in some way: as an alternative textbook, as a
supplementary textbook, as an aid to me in designing the class, as a
reference book, etc.  I have the following references, not all of which
are complete 'C' related. 

Your comments are appreciated.

Bentley, John: (1986) /Programming Pearls/, Addison-Wesley

Darnell, Peter A, and Margolis, Philip E: (1988) /Software Engineering
     in C/, Springer-Verlag, Berlin

Kernighan, , and Plauger, : (1976) /Software Tools/, Addison-Wesley,
     Reading

Kernighan, , and Ritchie, : /C Programming Language, 2nd ed./
