Relearning/Modern C

Name: Anonymous 2013-07-25 18:55

Hi /prog/,
I want to re-learn C the right way.

When I was in college I took a bunch of courses (data structures, ADTs, algorithms) but I don't think I gained a deep knowledge of C.

What are some good books or resources on modern C usage (K&R is pretty dated)?

I'd like to do some HPC later in my life and I need to start somewhere.

Bioinformatics/statistics, which would be mostly R and Python. I would like to be able to implement what R does, before learning R.

I could do "Learning C The Hard Way" but if it's anything like the Python version, I won't learn anything about how my code works, just how to write it.

I think too many people "just code" without regard to best practice or design (not that I'm implying you do).

My boss seriously used a do {} while (false); with breaks as a ghetto goto.
