Synopsis:
Write lean, mean C code that screams. Give yourself a competitive edge with over 100 tested rules of thumb for producing clear, concise, elegantly coded C programs. In The Elements of C Programming Style, by Jay Ranade and Alan Nash, you get savvy insider programming techniques and shortcuts seasoned pros use to unify coding practices, enforce high-quality standards and keep development teams focused. Regardless of your experience, you'll see how to exploit: little-known coding tricks to save days of programming time; powerful C Libary features to help you work more effectively; key design rules even the most experienced programmers overlook; often neglected testing routines that catch bugs before they hatch; foolproof debugging methods; master-programmer techniques for optimizing speed, memory and readability; best ways to utilize comments, data objects, numbers and I/O; expert guidelines for maximizing expressions, statements, functions, parameters, arrays, pointers and the preprocessor; much more.
Review: The Elements of C Programming Style can serve as a foundation for producing C code that is readable (by humans), computationally efficient, and bug-free. This book offers the reader a large set of rules that cover every facet of C programming from flow control to "visual organization." While most programmers will not agree with every rule, they will still find value in these suggestions.
