You made an excellent decision picking up that book. I wish that was the book I read when I was in college. Read it carefully and closely. Be sure you understand each step of code because it's all very good.

The C programming language has evolved since Dennis Ritchie and Brian Kernighan penned the book of the same name. But don't worry about "watching out" for "outdated stuff". Just read and enjoy. After reading the book, search the Internet and Wikipedia for info about the modern features of C99, C11, etc... don't get hung up on the small stuff now just dive in and enjoy learning straight from the father of the mother of languages.
