Uh man... that book is exclusively for programmers interested in Windows. If you want to be a global C programmer get this book - *books.google.com/books?id=3fZa9af1...:Hill&lr=&as_brr=0&source=gbs_summary_s&cad=0
This book is completely based on ANSI C that is supported everywhere.

"Let Us C" encourages lot of bad practices. Esp due to its recommendation of TC which is in itself a dinosaur compiler. I'm talking till 5th edition. Don't know if things have changed now.
ANSI C by Balaguruswamy is a good one. But even that misses few important subtleties of C. The best way to learn C is "The C Programming Language" by Ritchie himself (along with Kernighan). It gives you implementation details of even the standard libraries.
But you need to be a patient. It may not be having a very analogy filled style like other books. But it has almost all details about C.

for c & c++ Balaguru samy is the best book. And let us c by yashvant kanetkar is also good for c. And I also don't Know about PHP.I think 21 days is good for it.

Now I shall be getting all the books you all mentioned and should tell you how the books are after my exams (28th)
Thank you for helping me.
For PHP - "PHP and MySQL Bible"
This was the book with which I started with. I felt that it contained all those which a beginner should know.

For C++ get Thinking With C++ by Bruce Eckel. Its a great book and you can even download it for free from Eckel's website. But the book assumes that you know some programming. Another good book is Accelerated C++.
Both of these books follow modern conventions and standardised C++ not the outdated crappy TC v3. Let US C is very entertaining, its easy to read and is a good first book to just warm up. But after glancing through it once and getting the basic ideas its best not to refer to it. For C try K&R.
