- First of all, I can't find a FAQ to this group... anyone know
- where I can pick up a copy - might help me here.
- <P>
- Anyway, my problem is, I need to learn some basic concepts of
- C. I just downloaded a shareware C compiler - to see whether I
- might be better off sticking with BASIC (which is my native
- tounge, so to speak :) ) or making the trasition over to C.
- <P>
- First off, where should I begin? Are there any books that you
- could recommend to get me started? Are there any simple sample
- programs that I should look at? The syntax is so completely
- <STRONG>different</STRONG> from BASIC, it boggles the mind! ;-)
- <P>
- Anything you could do to help would be greatly appreciated!
- Thanks in advance.
- <P>
- Regards,<br>
