Modern C

The free version of this new edition is now available at

https://hal.inria.fr/hal-02383654

This new edition has been the occasion to overhaul the presentation in many places, but its main purpose is the update to the new C standard, C23. The goal was to publish this new edition of Modern C at the same time as the new C standard goes through the procedure of ISO publication. The closest approximation of the contents of the new standard in a publically available document can be found here. New releases of major compilers already implement most of the new features that it brings.

Among the most noticeable changes and additions that we handle are those for integers: there are new bit-precise types coined _BitInt(N), new C library headers <stdckdint.h> (for arithmetic with overflow check) and <stdbit.h> (for bit manipulation), possibilities for 128 bit types on modern architectures, and substantial improvements for enumeration types. Other new concepts in C23 include a nullptr constant and its underlying type, syntactic annotation with attributes, more tools for type generic programming such as type inference with auto and typeof, default initialization with {}, even for variable length arrays, and constexpr for name constants of any type. Furthermore, new material has been added, discussing compound expressions and lambdas, so-called “internationalization”, a comprehensive approach for program failure.

Also added has been an appendix and a temporary include header for an easy transition to C23 on existing platforms, that will allow you to start off with C23 right away.

Manning's early access program (MEAP) for the new edition is still open at

There is a special code au35gus to get 35% off of the official price from all Manning products, including Modern C.

Print and eBook editions of Modern C for the previous edition still can be ordered from Manning.

They were not yet able to tell me, when the C23 version will finally appear.

The most recent version available is from Oct. 15, 2024.

• a CC licensed version of Modern C
• a MIT licensed version of the code examples
  • is archived here
  • may be downloaded as zip file.

I sometimes use my blog to dump new ideas where I think C should head to, and to keep an updated list of the features that might go into C2x.

I am not producing this book for a living, but the people at Manning do. If you still think that you don't want to buy a printed or e-paper version and are satisfied by using the public version, you're welcome to do so.

You could still think of contributing a little bit, either by volunteering to

• your favorite software project
• a software industry improvement project
• a free speech or publication project
• the national C standards committee of your country

or anything else that makes the whole world (or maybe just our planet) a better place.

You could also contribute by giving whatever money you may spare to such a project. There are many projects in need of contributions, not all important open source projects out there are financed by big money, and that independence is important.
