I want to learn C

I want to learn C so i can "mod" FS2 source code. Do any of you know of any good online resources, or books (writen in english)

I already have "Microsoft Visual Studio 6" so I can compile C (and C++)

If you have an idea for a book please post the universal ISBN number located on the back.

My old C++ text book is pretty good, but I don't know if you'll learn enough C from it to do anything with the source code.

I know enough about C to sort of understand most of it
I may be able to make some new simple effects

Bearing in mind that the FS2 source is C++, then a guide to C isn't going to be the _best_ solution, but will be a good starting point. C++ has a number of differences to C and many say that it's sometimes better to *not* know C before you learn C++.
