People are criticizing this, but this is very valuable to someone like me, who just wants to brush up a bit on my C, having some minor experience, and a lot of python experience, so thanks!



Not to diminish the usefulness of this brief intro (it is very well written) but, as the saying goes "a little knowledge...".

Two of the biggest stumbling blocks in C (and their ilk) are pointers and memory/garbage collection... which this brief intro barely mentions.

It actually reminded me of many programming courses I've taken over the years where the instructor spends an inordinate amount of time on the easiest concepts and quickly glosses over the meaty bits.
