[Cialug] Learning the 'C' language

[Nathan C. Smith]

For programming.  I could get what I need from a book, but I need an
instructor to help me stay on task.  I have the K&R book.
 
I know a smattering of other things.  All languages have similarities in
program flow and branching.  A review of basic syntax and variable-types
then a dive into 'C' uniqueness and data structures would suit me best.
Linked lists, pointers hash tables,  hmm starting to sound like a data
structures class.
 
What I would be even more interested in is the environment around C in
Linux.  GCC and make and the C libraries.  ...  The stuff you need to know
to contribute to a project.  Malloc, threading.

| Anybody know of a good place locally (DSM Metro) to learn 'C'?
| Really just plain C, but maybe C++ if that's all there is.

Do you want to learn C for credits or programming?
What other programming languages do you know?
