The C23 edition of Modern C is now available for free download from
https://hal.inria.fr/hal-02383654
This new edition has been the occasion to overhaul the presentation in many places, but its main purpose is the update to the new C standard, C23. The goal was to publish this new edition of Modern C at the same time as the new C standard goes through the procedure of ISO publication. The closest approximation of the contents of the new standard in a publically available document can be found here. New releases of major compilers already implement most of the new features that it brings.
Among the most noticeable changes and additions that we handle are those for integers: there are new bit-precise types coined
_BitInt(N)
, new C library headers(for arithmetic with overflow check) and
(for bit manipulation), possibilities for 128 bit types on modern architectures, and substantial improvements for enumeration types. Other new concepts in C23 include anullptr
constant and its underlying type, syntactic annotation with attributes, more tools for type generic programming such as type inference withauto
andtypeof
, default initialization with{}
, even for variable length arrays, andconstexpr
for named constants of any type. Furthermore, new material has been added, discussing compound expressions and lambdas, so-called “internationalization”, a comprehensive approach for program failure.Also added has been an appendix and a temporary include header for an easy transition to C23 on existing platforms, that will allow you to start off with C23 right away.
Manning’s early access program (MEAP) for the new edition is still open at
https://www.manning.com/books/modern-c-third-edition
Unfortunately they were not yet able to tell me when their version of the C23 edition will finally be published.

The Europa Clipper finally took off! It'll reach this icy, water-filled moon of Jupiter in 2030. But it won't orbit that moon. Instead, it will fly by Europa 44 times, tracing out these wonderful tracks.
Why not orbit Europa? There's too much radiation that close to Jupiter, and the Clipper can collect data much faster than it can transmit it to Earth. If it orbited Europa it would fry before it could tell us very much!
Thus, the Clipper will spend most of its time farther from Jupiter, transmitting data to Earth. Using gravity assists from 2 other moons, it will occasionally swoop down, zip past Europa, and make more measurements.
In its 3½ year life, the Europa Clipper will get 2.8 megarads of radiation from Jupiter. This is about 280 times the amount that would kill you! Jupiter is pretty, but don't try to live nearby.
