Features: This book elaborates on the knowledge of C language at different levels. The book is divided into three parts: Basic C Language, Data Structures, and Advanced Topics. It is rich in content, clear in presentation, and progressive, with each chapter being self-contained. The book is primarily aimed at readers with basic C programming experience and can help them advance from intermediate to advanced C programmers. Additionally, the book is structured around knowledge units as its basic components, making it easy to dismantle and reassemble, suitable for teaching needs at different levels. It can serve as a textbook for computer science programs in colleges and universities, as well as a self-study reference for computer professionals. The battlefield of the holy war is not just the format of curly braces; the use of whitespace also affects code readability. If one assumes that there exists a certain whitespace format that maximizes code readability, that would be wrong. It can be said that there are as many whitespace formats as there are C programmers.
