This is a concise programming guide that teaches readers how to program in Linux and UNIX environments. The content is organized in a question-and-answer format, assuming the reader has no prior programming experience. The author begins by briefly reviewing the various commands and utilities commonly used by programmers, then describes the software development tools available to anyone programming in Linux and UNIX environments. These tools include utilities for managing object file libraries, version control tools, and tools for debugging and analysis. The book includes extensive chapter exercises to reinforce and practice the new commands and tools, and comes with a solutions manual (available only to verified instructors), making it an ideal textbook for CS1/CS2 courses in operating systems or software engineering.
