I would recommend reading the comp.lang.c FAQ and buying a copy of K&R2

K&R2 is NOT a book for beginners.


Right, it is not a book for beginners in programming.
Wrong. it is a book for beginners in programming in C with good
practice in other programming languages.

It worked for me, C was my first programming language and I learned it
with K&R and "learn C" which followed the examples in the book on a VAX.
