OT: C Language Tutorial

A while back, someone in here was looking for a good C language book. Unfortunately, I can't find that thread right now.

Someone mentioned Kernighan & Richie. I'd stay away from that one. K&R isn't much more than a C language specification. Tough to learn from. (I tried, and failed, way back when...)

I don't remember what I used to teach myself C, but just stumbled across a tutorial that's as good as anything I've seen. It's "Essential C," written by the Stanford University CS folks.

I hope that the person who asked the question is still reading the forum, and I hope this info helps.
