The use of an interactive programming style is emphasized throughout the text.
The book can be used by a wide reader audience, ranging from beginning programmers to practicing professionals. It is particularly well suited for advanced secondary or beginning college-level students as a textbook for an introductory programming course, as a supplementary text, or as an effective independent- study guide.
Many examples are included as an integral part of the text. These include numerous programming examples of varying complexity, as well as illustrative drill-type problems.
The sample programs conform to the ANSI C standard. Many are solved using other programming languages in the companion Schaum's Outlines, thus providing the reader with a basis of comparison among several popular languages.
