Learning C

Well, I've decided now is the time for me to learn C.
I've already got books (Practical C Programming and the K&R book) that should be arriving soon. However, I'm a tad impatient, so I'm looking for things on the Internet. I soon discover that it's extemely hard finding a good tutorial-type thinger, as C is an extremely bad keyword to use to search, and there's no "official" site like Python does with resources and all that jazz.
Anyone know of a good C thing?

I haven't found one online. It seems the best tutorials I've found are in college programming textbooks and the like, if you have a college bookstore or used bookshop (or library) nearby you could enquire at.

About.com seems to have a decent one. If you are really interested in STARTING programming, then yeah, it's farly low level.

I'd probably start poking around the Programmer's Heaven site. You should be able to find some tutorials on specific subjects (which may allow you to apply what the books teach to some neat things). However, I've never found a good general programming tutorial on-line; you're better off with the books.

Cool, I've not long started learning Visual C++ 6, for my Honours Year project at university, and have been looking for any sites i could find that deal with programming audio software in Visual C++

I'm looking for stuff like the stuff found on python.org's introductory materials:

I guess the about.com one is acceptable, but it'd be nice to have a few more to compare and all.
Thanks!
