Full Discussion: C Reference Book

Then I would go with C programming in a nutshell. Here are two books I found on Amazon. Based on their TOC, these are recommended:

Amazon.com: String Processing and Text Manipulation in C: Selected Data Structures and Techniques/Book and Disk (Prentice Hall Series on Programming Tools and M): Bernice Sacks Lipkin: Books

Amazon.com: Introduction to Scientific Programming: Computational Problem Solving Using Maple and C: Joseph L. Zachary: Books

The second book covers the all-important topic of dealing with numbers inside programming languages. While this may not seem a big deal at first, it turns out that accumulation of "round-off" error can have huge implications. For instance, using single precision floating point as opposed to double precision can save 20 to 30 % processing speed, but it can also guarantee your results will be absolute mush.

Best of luck to you.

NAME
WebCommon::urlEncode - URL encode a string SYNOPSIS
String urlEncode( String x ) ARGUMENTS
x The string to encode DESCRIPTION
URL encode a string. You should use this to encode reserved characters in URLs that you wish to be passed literally. // trying to pass "http://www.example.com" as a parameter url = "http://localhost/test.cgi?url="; url += urlEncode("http://www.example.com"); // url = http://localhost/test.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com Note that in the example above, encoding the whole URL would be incorrect - that would create a relative URL beginning "http://".
