comp.lang.c is just about useless for a beginner unless your sole
interest is in rigid conformance to the ISO/ANSI standard. It's not
about programming or algorithms or for discussion of compiler quirks
*at all*. 

If you're really interested in the language as defined in the
standard, you can get the same information, minus the attitude (which
can be devastating for newcomers who have yet to grow a skin) by
picking up a copy (PDF if you like) of the ISO/IEC 9899:1999 standard.
It's not very expensive. 

Also look for lists devoted to the compiler(s) you are interested in. 

Best regards,
