So as someone who has an unhealthy love of C I have to say this is amazing and will be forwarding it on to some friends trying to learn C. The humor is just fantastic IMHO.

May I suggest that you also send them a link to Zed Shaw's "Learn C The Hard Way" online book [0], which presents lessons in modern C programming, including the use of tools like Valgrind, etc.?

I just wrote a comment [0] about my problems with learning C, would you say this book covers the issues that I raised and is worth reading?

EDIT: Well, I just looked over the chapters in this book and I'm now extremely excited to give it a read. It seems to cover most of the topics that I'm interested in, so thank you SO MUCH for sharing!

I think it might not cover them, going by this: http://hentenaar.com/dont-learn-c-the-wrong-way

Ehh, you can never have too much C! ;)
