Doing a deep-dive revisit of C - via K&R - has just made me go "oh, THAT'S why they did that" a few times just in chapter one.

My happiness that Kernighan’s memoir was delivered was slightly diminished seeing it was (I assume) a print-on-demand by Kindle Direct Publishing…
Is this an Amazon thingy? (I ordered it through a somewhat local bookstore)
Hope to enjoy the book regardless…

Just realised I'm as old (at least to the year of release!) as the C programming language. So many memories of programming in it as an undergraduate at St Andrews. Kernighan and Ritchie was our programming bible. https://www.computerhistory.org/timeline/1972/ #ComputerHistory #ComputingHistory #1970s #StAndrews #StAndrewsUniversity #programming #coding #Kernighan #BrianKernighan #Ritchie #DennisRitchie #KernighanAndRitchie #Books #Cprogramming
