C is a pretty small language with a small standard library.  It
actually is possible to learn the basics from the reference as
long as you mostly work with files and stdio.  And of course there
is plenty of example code around if you want to see how things
have been done before.  The messy part comes when you start using
huge libraries for GUI or other complex operations.
