Description:This book is an extension of Learn C on the Macintosh. Dave is an excellent writer, but doesn't do quite as good a job with this book as he has done with the others he has written. This book assumes you know C pretty well before you begin it. Also, Symantec C++ is no longer published and book is not up to date with current ISO standards. I wish Dave would rewrite this book and bring it up to date with Codewarrior and current ISO standards and introduce the language from a "ground up" beginners point of view. Basically, if you can find your way around C and have not yet learned C++, it's a fairly good, but outdated book.
