Books for Learning C
The authors suggest other books for administering Linux systems. They do not recommend however a book for those of us that need to learn C. Tips on good sources to learn C would be greatly appreciated. I have started to learn Visual Studio VB. I have the 2002 version of Visual Studio with several languages installed but I am not sure the .NET environment is the best to learn C so I can program with Linux. Are the classes consistent?
Best regards,
Kevin Tough

The classes won't be consistent, no. AFAIK .NET is tied to Microsoft's c# language, which is very different from c and largely different from c++ (its actually more like java than anything)
You can run c# programs on Linux using Mono - I must admit my ignorance on how much of it is supported.
If you want to write properly cross platform c or c++, you should only use ANSI c or c++ . These you can find out about from google.
As for books, it'll depend on the style of book you like - I'm always pretty keen on O'Reilly's stuff, though they may be a little dry for some. Kernighan & Ritchie's "The C language" is the bible for C and Stroustrop's "The C++ Programming Language" perfoms a similar role for C++.

Hey, thanks for the tips. Are you experienced with Visual Basic? I am also looking for a book to help me with writing help files for VB. I have the book "Beginning VB.Net" from WROX but it does touch on the subject. For some reason my early searches on the topic are all failing.
Best regards,
Kevin Tough
