Introduction to "C" Programming,

              C is a powerful general-purpose programming language. It is fast, portable and available on all platforms.
            C is a programming language developed at AT & T's Bell Laboratories of the USA  in 1972. It is designed and written by a man Dennis Ritchie in between 1969 and 1973. It becomes popular its reliable, simple and easy to use. C language suitable for system programmings like an operating system or compiler development.
             Nobody can learn C#, C++ or Java directly. C language has some basic elements like classes, polymorphism, exception handling etc. One should learn all the language elements.  The popular operating systems like Windows, Linux, Unix are also written n C.
               The C programming language is middle-level language. Some say C is high-level language and some says C is a low-level language. The actual fact is that the C is low-level language in comparison with the Java, .net etc and it is high-level language in comparison with the assembly language. It is in between high level and low level.

Let's Start With C Programming

          For writing C code the compiler is necessary. The various compilers are available on the internet. Some compilers are available online also. Some compilers are like Code Block, Eclipse, Dev-Cpp also available. I strongly recommend you to use Code Block for windows.
             On the other hand in Linux the Vim editor is best for C programming, I am also using Vim editor for C programming.If Vim editor is not working properly on Linux then it may need some packages to be download. To download the package open the terminal and write the command sudo apt-get install vim then press enter first it will ask for password and then it checks for needed packages and asks for download and install then press Y. It will automatically download and install all the packages. Code Block is also available for Linux. The output is

Let's Take Simple Program of C

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
    printf("Ocean of Programming\n");
    return 0;
}
The output is

Data Types In C Programming

Image
         C Programming supports different types of data types. The different data types require different memory for storage. There four basic data types int, char, float and double.            The 'int' is used to store the integer value, 'char' is used to store any character, 'float' is used to store the floating value and double is used to storing the double value.          Different data types also have a different range. Ranges may vary from compiler to compiler. The below specifiers on 32-bit GCC compiler. Basic Data Types Data Typs withe type qualifiers Size(bytes) Range char signed char 1 -128 to +127 unsigned char 1 0 to 255 int int or signed int 2 -32768 to 32767 unsigned int 2 ...

How To Create and Run Project In Code::Blocks

Image
        In the previous post, we have seen how to download and install Code::Blocks for C programming. If you did not read that article then read How to Download and Install Code::Blocks before proceeding further.        The code block is a popular application for C Programming. It is open source, cross platform, free C, C++ and Fortran IDE. Using Code::Blocks we can write C code, compile and run it. It popular application and free to use.         In this post, I am going to explain how to run and compile C program code in Code::Blocks. Lets us follow the procedure. The procedure is same for every project.          In the first step you have to double-click on the Code::Blocks icon which on the desktop. After that, you will see window like this and you have to click on Create New Project.           After sele...

Patterns In "C" Programming Part: 1

Image
                In "C" programming patterns are very important for understanding the concept of loops. Implementing loops any pattern can be produced. Here are some basic patterns in programming. I am using Linux platform.            Pattern 1 Program #include<stdio.h> main() { int i,j,n; printf("Enter valude of n= "); scanf("%d",&n); for(i=1; i<=n; i++,printf("\n")) { for(j=1; j<=i; j++) { if(j<=i) printf("*"); else printf(" "); } } } The output for n=5 is Pattern 2 Program  #include<stdio.h> main() { int i,j,n; printf("Enter valude of n= "); scanf("%d",&n); for(i=1; i<=n; i++,printf("\n")) { ...
