I know that K&R I exists. Wonderful reference.
I know K&R II exists, even bought a couple. ANSI C (C89) is a wonderful
thing. Works fine.
Now that we have had C99 (or whatever it is called these days) is there
any hope that something the equivalent of K&R III might be written??
I suspect that there IS an audience for it. You know: If they write it
we will read/buy it!!
I personally found the style of K&R VERY helpful and the explanations
even better. The "manual" was only about 10 mm or so in thickness.
Personally I found the C++ manual (Look I picked it up when Bjarne gave
a lecture locally) a little wordy, and the examples mostly incomplete.
There were many examples that ended with:
// ...
Which got a bit annoying. This is my personal opinion!!
Any authors in the audience??
