You should definitely have a copy of K&R on your desk. A book I read alongside K&R was "Illustrating C" by Donald G. Alcock, even though it is out of print and quite hard to find I'd recommend hunting a copy down as it explains the concepts visually and for me, it was the only book that made things fall…
on “Ask HN: Should I use K&R to learn C?” ↗That's awesome! I hadn't come across Donald Alcock's books before, and I'm glad you recommended them. I've just ordered a copy of Illustrating C. Looking forward to being inspired by it!
