What's a good book to learn C if you already know Python and are comfortable with computer science terminology? I'd like a book that is downloadable as a .pdf free of charge but an html book viewable online free of charge would be fine.
Also, is there an advantage to learning C before you learn C++?
Sorry but I can't tell you a book like that.
Also, is there an advantage to learning C before you learn C++?
No, there isn't. As a matter of fact, it is not recomended at all. Learn C++ directly. Knowing Python you have an advantage but resist the tentation to learn C++ "thinking" in Python or any other language. Translating every thing you learn in C++ to Python will make if harder.
See also what we said in "C or C++" discussion about learning C before C++.
BTW: Welcome to the world of pointers and semicolons!
