C程序设计语言

Brian W.Kernighan，贝尔实验室计算科学研究中心高级研究人员，著名的计算机科学家。他参加了UNIX系统、C语言、AWK语言和许多其他系统的开发，同时出版了许多在计算机领域具有影响的著作，包括《The Elements of Programming Style》、《The Practice of Programming》、《The UNIX Programming Environment》、《The AWK Language》、《Software Tools》等。

在计算机发展的历史上，没有哪一种程序设计语言像C语言这样应用广泛。本书是C语言的设计者之一Dennis M.Ritchie和著名计算机科学家Brian W.Kernighan合著的一本介绍C语言的权威经典著作。我们现在见到的大量论述C语言程序设计的教材和专著均以此书为蓝本。本书第1版中介绍的C语言成为后来广泛使用的C语言版本——标准C的基础。人们熟知的“hello,World"程序就是由本书首次引入的。现在，这一程序已经成为众多程序设计语言入门的第一课。 第2版根据1987年制定的ANSIC标准做了适当的修订，引入了最新的语言形式，并增加了新的示例。通过简洁的描述、典型的示例，作者全面、系统、准确地讲述了C语言的各个特性以及程序设计的基本方法。对于计算机从业人员来说，本书是一本必读的程序设计语言方面的参考书。
