Transcription of Preface to the Digital Edition - pearsoncmg.com
{{id}} {{{paragraph}}}
Preface to the Digital Edition The second Edition of The C Programming Language was published early in 1988. At that time, the first C standard was almost complete, formalizing and codifying the precise definition of the language. There have been two revisions to the standard since then, in 1999 and 2011, that added a number of language features and cleared up a few minor issues. But for many programmers, the 1988 definition of C covers the parts of the language that they use, so it has never seemed necessary to update the book itself to track the newer standards. Thus, the Digital version is intentionally identical to the print Edition .
