I know that the company Functional Software brought out some Functional Sockware, I wore them for years.
If you need to learn C, at least use the first edition of the book - the one without the ANSI additions is much smaller.
I''ve actually never read the second/and edition so I can't say if it is good or not. I can tell you that the first edition still has a proud space on my bookshielf though the acid paper is starting to take a toll and I suspect it won't be long and I'll be needing a reprint.
I haven't read either, honestly Rust is so much better than C or C++ and if I were going to learn a low level language I'd probably go with that instead. Currently I only do Python and a tiny bit of Javascript.
I dare assume you get downvoted for liking Rust, so take my upvote for balance. We differ about what we think of the language, but this kind of angry downvoting is plain ridiculous
Probably moreso for expressing the opinion so strongly without actually knowing any of the three languages.
Edit: I'm just guessing why a different comment got downvotes. Why am I getting downvotes?
Programming socks memes are always welcome here.

Only Winsocks.
Underrated joke.
