   I liked "C Programming: A Modern Approach"[1]. It has been several years but as I recall it was well suited for self study and was pretty explicit in calling out places it was talking about C99 as opposed to C89.

   I would recommend https://www.amazon.com/C-Programming-Modern-Approach-2nd/dp/.... There's specifically a section on organizing large projects IIRC.

   I cannot recommend "C Programming: A Modern Approach" [1] enough.

   I'd say you just get the book "C Programming: A Modern Approach" by K.N. King. At the end of every chapter there are some exercises & challenges.

   It's an excellent book (see the ratings on Amazon) and also fun to read through.

   C should be much easier to learn than C++. The language is much more basic feature-wise and the standard C library is very small indeed.

   Perhaps, if you're interested in learning to write well-written C code, you might be interested in the book "C Programming: A Modern Approach"[0] by King. Coding style is an important topic in his book.
