Books

  • C - A Reference Manual, Samuel P. Harbison, Guy L. Steele Jr (1984)
  • C Programming Language, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie (1988 vintage)
  • lex & yacc, John R. Levine, Tony Mason & Doug Brown (1990,1995). The closest I got to compiler design. (Not very close!). I also followed an MIT IAP class on lex & yacc back around 2000-2005 which was really helpful. ‘The C Programming Language’ has, I think, a nice simple lex & yacc example at the end.
