I've been away from programming for at least 10 years. Can "C" be learned from a book or should one take a class? I loved Assembly Language in school but went to COBOL for the big bucks... ;-D Algorithms and Data Structurs sounds interesting for some reason... as does "K&R Ansi C" sounds like a strait forward book. Any hope for us middle age Linux monkies to pickup these books and be able to write more then "Hello World"? ;o) Sam.
