[C Primer Plus 5th Edition] vs [C Primer Plus 6th Edition]

I am currently ready [C Primer Plus 5th Edition] and i recently bought it, as suggested by many friends, is there any major differences b/w both editions 5&6 ?

Is there any need to switch to 6th edition ?

[Lachlan Easton]

Throw it in the bin and buy [C++ Primer 5th Edition] (notice the lack of plus)

@Lachlan_Easton

I am talking about C not C++,
Wait! did you mean Throw C language or C++ Primer 6th Edition?

I think you misunderstood.

Then i really don't think it matters.

A lot of the reviews on that page for version 5 were made this year.

[anup30]

i didn't read that.

i like, Problem Solving and Program Design in C 7,E (2013) pages921
by, Jeri R. Hanly & Elliot B. Koffman

or, Beginning C 5th Ed - by Ivor Horton (2013) pages675

Now I think that you are confusing yourself.

Anyway, the best thing to do is go to the Amazon 'look inside' for each of the books and compare the contents pages. Also see if thee is a section on what's new or see if there is a supporting website for the book.
