This course provides in-depth coverage of the C language. Students will learn from hundreds of live-code examples, with the instructor explaining each concept. the instructor will assist students in working through each topic of the Curriculum, step-by-step.

C is a

general-purpose, block structured, procedural, imperative computer programming language for use with the Unix operating

system. It has since spread to many other platforms. Although C was designed as a system implementation language, it is also

widely used for applications. C has also greatly influenced many other popular languages, especially C++, which was

originally designed as an extension to C.

Its design goals were for it to be compiled using a relatively

straightforward compiler, provide low-level access to memory, provide language constructs that map efficiently to machine

instructions, and require minimal run-time support. C was therefore useful for many applications that had formerly been coded

in assembly language. Despite its low-level capabilities, the language was designed to encourage machine-independent

programming. A standards-compliant and portably written C program can be compiled for a very wide variety of computer

platforms and operating systems with minimal change to its source code. The language has become available on a very wide

range of platforms, from embedded microcontrollers to supercomputers.
