Re: Best way to start

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.

Re: Best way to start

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.

Re: Best way to start

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.
