the first search I did was for "advanced C" (with the quotes).
result #1 pointed to a webpage which had none of the topics
you mentioned above (ADT's, etc) -
http://cplus.about.com/cs/advancedc/
result #2 and #3 pointed to accu book lists, both of which were much to
long for me to read through. the advanced C books no doubt covered
the scenarios you listed.
result #4 is the outline of a course for C. "Description This course
covers advanced features of C in the use of C in more advanced applications."
of the 13 highlights of the syllabus listed, only one of them mentions
data structures like you wanted; surely a weak case for data structures
to be "advanced C" ?
result #5 takes me to an advanced C tutorial (or so it calls itself),
which *never* *even* *mentions* data structures like you wanted.
(it is, in case you were wondering, an x86-based tut on video drivers)
result #6 and #7 and #8 had nothing to do with the C programming language
result #9 is for something called the batky-howell advanced C course,
with merely a single chapter on linked-lists (nothing else like tree's ADT's
etc).
result #10 is another thing totally unrelated to the C programming language.
it would be wise, before asking someone to look up something that proves
your point, to look it up yourself first, just in case
anyway, you still have not answered exactly *who* considers these
things to be advanced concepts.

I did, i googled for "advanced C", is google different on your world ?

i think not, i might be normal, or just about average, but not exceptional.

what do you mean "else" ??? I never categorised *anything* under the umbrella
of "advanced".

no, not really funny ... but you will find it so when you realise that
ADTs, linked-lists, tree's of every type, etc are not advanced "C" concepts,
but merely usefull data constructs that you will encounter in every language.
just because you are able to do them in C, it does not mean that doing them
in C is /advanced/ ...
hth
goose,
google is your fiend !!!!
