Advanced C Struct Programming: Data Structure Design and Implementation in C

by John W. L. Ogilvie

Now available for your professional programming use is this invaluable guide which presents a practical method for designing and implementing complex data structures in the C language. The method used consists of two parts: the plan and the framework. The framework offers you a structure for organizing knowledge about data structures, while the plan is an algorithm for using the framework's resources to design and implement data structures. Designed to be flexible and grow with you, this method also incorporates useful tricks, guidelines, and techniques gleaned from over seven years of programming experience. It picks up where others end and is not a cookbook of C networking code, graphics routines or any other particular application area. It will in fact be useful and work for a wide range of programs, including interpreters, word processors, string pattern matchers, simulators, window managers, games, and database editing libraries.
