Thanks for your suggestion! I just bought C Programming Language 2nd ed. (Prentice Hall), do you think that should be enough? I am just wondering if I also need to get a reference book. By the way I am doing programming in UNIX most of the time.

DERIVATIONS(7)						Derivations of Applied Mathematics					    DERIVATIONS(7)

NAME
derivations - book: Derivations of Applied Mathematics DESCRIPTION
Understandably, program sources rarely derive the mathematical formulas they use. Not wishing to take the formulas on faith, a user might nevertheless reasonably wish to see such formulas somewhere derived. Derivations of Applied Mathematics is a book which documents and derives many of the mathematical formulas and methods implemented in free software or used in science and engineering generally. It documents and derives the Taylor series (used to calculate trigonometrics), the Newton-Raphson method (used to calculate square roots), the Pythagorean theorem (used to calculate distances) and many others. READING THE BOOK
Among other ways, you can read the book on your computer screen by opening the file /usr/share/doc/derivations/derivations.ps.gz with the gv(1) program under X(7). To print the book on a standard postscript printer, just zcat(1) then lpr(1) the same file. FILES
/usr/share/doc/derivations/derivations.ps.gz the book in postscript format /usr/share/doc/derivations/derivations.pdf.gz the book in PDF BUGS
The book is a work in progress. AUTHOR
The book and this manpage are written by Thaddeus H. Black, who also maintains the Debian package derivations in which they are distrib- uted. Users who need to contact the author in his role as Debian package maintainer can reach him at <thb@debian.org>. However, most e- mail will naturally be about the book itself: this should be sent to <thb@derivations.org>. COPYLEFT
