IEEE. 1990. Information Technology — Portable Operating System Interface(POSIX)Part 1: System
Application Program Interface(API)[C Language]. IEEE (Dec.).
This was the first of the POSIX standards, and it defined the C language systems interface
standard, based on the UNIX operating system. It is often called POSIX.1. It is now part of the
Single UNIX Specification published by The Open Group[ 2008 ].
ISO. 1999.International Standard ISO/IEC 9899—Programming Language C. ISO/IEC.
The official standardfor the C language and the standardlibraries. Although this was replaced
by a new version of the standard in 2011, the systems described in this book still conform to the
1999 version of the standard.

ISO. 2011. International Standard ISO/IEC 9899, Information Technology — Programming
Languages — C. ISO/IEC.
The latest version of the official standardfor the C language and the standardlibraries, which
replaces the 1999 version.
