- You've made it through.
I'm so glad you came to that point,
and hopefully you had fun.
I definitely had a lot of fun
crafting those assignments and presentations,
and talking to you even though
I didn't see you.
I just like programming,
and I hope you do too,
and maybe as a result of this course
you like it a little bit more than
before you took it.
I really had a fun time with it,
especially since C is such an important language.
I would like to suggest some additional
resources should you like to become
more proficient with C.
In particular, I would like to recommend
"The C Programming Language".
This is the definitive book on C,
written by Kernigan and Ritchie.
The other one is a very good book,
is "C: How to Program" by Dietel and Dietel.
They publish a lot of programming books.
This is a much more comprehensive book.
The original C book it's a fairly small book,
it's maybe 200 and something pages,
this one is probably 800 to 1,000 pages.
If you want to take your C programming
to the next step and still stay
within the standard C,
if you program C on a Windows in Visual Studio,
you're going to have to interact with
certain libraries that is particular
for that machine.
The same thing if you go for Mac,
maybe you graduate to other languages
like C++ or Objective-C,
they all have the same elements of C in it,
but if you stick to ansi C then you will
develop portable code that runs everywhere
and it's great fun.
Finally, I would really love to hear from you.
You can find me at this link on LinkedIn,
I am very active on LinkedIn,
so just look me up if you want
to drop me a note,
see what you thought about this class.
Finally, here's some other resources.
Those are a little bit different.
Some of you may have struggled with math,
and you may have heard me in videos
saying a lot that C and programming
in general is deeply rooted in math,
but I don't want to send you to an old
calculus, and algebra, and anything like that.
I have two authors that I really,
really recommend you read.
One is anything,
absolutely anything written by Martin Gardner.
The books he wrote were on every
area of mathematics.
And another one if you really like puzzles,
then the master puzzler of all times
is Raymond Smullyan.
I'm not going tell anything more about them
because I hope you have a sense
of discovery and if I intrigued you
with those names and you gonna go
and look them up,
and if not then no harm done.
So it's all on you right now.
So again, thank you for attending this.
It's been a great adventure,
and drop me a note, I'd love to hear from you.
Bye, bye.
