[Swlug] C Programming Book Recommendations

[Julian Hall]

Hi Marcus,

Rather than a book, may I suggest looking online - maybe You Tube - for 
a tutorial? I saw one yesterday for Blender - powerful 3D CAD software. 
The guy doing the tutorial talked about the 80/20 rule; you spend 80% of 
your time using 20% of the functions so the tutorial was aimed at 
showing you the 20%. Also online tutorials are often free, so it costs 
nothing to have a look at them.

Kind regards,

Julian
