Let's Start With 'C'

In my opinion, 'C' is the first language one should understand.It teaches programming and prepares you for complex languages such as C++, JAVA and C#.It is very important to learn this language to lay a solid foundation in programming.

Programming is fun. How ever , not everyone Who wants to be a programer would realise it, because some lack efforts and some lack direction. This is for people who don't know till what extent to work on basic ' C ',I am posting these keeping beginers in mind. The order of the further posts will be the order in which you will better understand these topics.

What is 'C' language ?

C , is a general-purpose programming language. A programming language is used to write programs . A program is a collection of instructions that accomplishes a particular task. For example , a program may find out the highest number out of 10 numbers ,another program may display the contents of a file on the screen and so on .The task that a program accomplishes may just be anything - from very complicated to trival . C is one of the most widely used programming languages.

C is called as middle - level languages because it contains the features of high - level languages such as Pascal and low - level languages - Assembly languages . C allows the programmer to access system resources directly , any feature only available in Assembly language. For example ,a program written in Assembly language can directly access a location in memory , a sector of the directly access a location in memory , a sector  of the diskette , and send data through the serial port of the machines, etc. C also has feature that are commonly found only in high-level languages like Coblo, Pascal , etc. For example ,a program written in 'C'

is portable it means ,it can run on any machine and any operating system , as long as a compiler of C is available on the target machine.
