What is the best tutorial online for learning C if you have never done any programming before and need to learn fast at first

[tdlrali]

I always recommend getting a book. It is the easiest to learn from, since you can read it even when you are not at the computer.

However, this is a good C tutorial: http://www.cs.cf.ac.uk/Dave/C/

If you want to program a FIRST Robotics Competition robot, you'll probably be best off using EasyC. It leads you through everything you need to know to get started.

If you are interested in a book, the classic book on C is "The C Programming Language" by Kernighan and Richie. My brother was reading it, and found it VERY informative and easy to understand.

Another good one is Programming in C by Stephan Kochan.

But if this is your first year as a programmer, and you're just starting to learn C now (5th week!), you'd probably be best off with EasyC. It will let you get started fairly quickly, and you will be able to start working through programming concepts right away without dealing with all the syntax.
