The C Programming Language (K&R (from the author's initials) or "the white book" -- 1978 or 1981(?) -- ISBN 0131103628) is a computer science book, written by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie. The book has been influential in the application and development of the C programming language. The book discusses the usage of C by AT&T; the "dialect" of C used here is sometimes referred to as K&R C.
