Admin mentions the book The C Programming Language , 2nd editon in his list of books ( http://www.societyofrobots.com/robot_books.shtml ) What I wanna know is if its good for robotics programming or is it more focused on computer programming? Has anyone read it?

If you learn C for computer programming, you'll also understand C for robotics programming.

A very good introduction book to c & robotics with ATMEL microcontrollers is "C Programming for Microcontrollers" by  Joe Pardue. Because there are some questions only related to microcontrollers and the microcontroller model you choose.

But I think it's better to learn C with a PC, it's easier and you can focus on the language.

I learned C++ from books and classes. I found moving on to C and programming robots was very intuitive after that, didn't really need a book or anything. Source code was enough to self learn.
