Query: could try harder

in some parts this book is very good, but is let down with some poor examples. When describing structures the author uses a definition, names the call and the instance all the same:struct structure {...}structure1;but in others he does it wellstruct person {} ralphmuch easier to follow why not do that throughout Steven (if you are reading this)you can waste a lot of time just figuring out what is going on. It's thick because very exmaple is repeated 20 times.I agree with another review also, the depth is sometime lacking in places but in others it just uses concepts not explained at all.if he cleans up the examples the book is ok, I am learning and it is difficult to know how it compares as it cost me 80 bucks and I can't afford another book so I guess I'll continue.
