Introduction to C Language

What is C programming?

It is a structured programming language which is used to write computer program. Its is a general purpose procedural and structured programming language which is used to develop software such as Operating System, compiler, databases etc.

History of C:

It was first developed by “Dennis Richie” in 1972 at AT & T’s Bell Laboratory.
It is a powerful programming language that is used to develop various applications on various platforms.
It is a procedural programming language developed to built the operating system.
It was developed for the Unix Operating System.
All the applications of the Unix Operating system are written in the C language.
It was very firstly implemented in 1972 on the Digital Equipment Corporation (PDP-11) computer.
In this modern life, C became the widely used professional programming language.
The features of C language like simple keywords, clean style, low-level memory, etc., are used for compiler development, Operating System, etc.
Later, the Syntax of C has been borrowed directly or indirectly by the other programming languages.
C++ programming language nearly became a subset of C.
Few other programs can only compile on C, not on C++.

Reasons to learn the C programming language?

Firstly, if people are working in the software industry, they must learn C.
It is a computer programming language that is easy to learn for the beginner in the computer industry.
The low-level activities can be handled quickly and efficiently.
It is a structured programming language.
With the help of C, we can understand the computer fundamentals clearly.

Advantages of C programming:

It is a powerful and efficient language.
It has built-in functions.
It is a middle-level programming language.
It is portable (with-care).
It is flexible.
The high-quality tools are readily available.
It is security friendly.
Fast execution time.

Disadvantages of C Programming language:

The compiler of C programming is platform dependent.
The OOPs concept is unavailable.
The exception handling is lacking.
It is based on runtime checking.
Namespace concept.
Low-level abstraction.
It does not support in-line functions.
The large scale program support is inadequate for C.

Features of C programming:

Highly efficiently.
General-purpose language.
Structured programming language.
System programming.
High securely.
System independent.

Applications of C programming:

Operating Systems.
GUI.
Compiler Design.
Text Editors.
Embedded System.
Databases like MySQL, etc.,
Gaming and Animation.

Environment Set-up

Download and Installing C compiler.

In this tutorial, you will learn a step by step process for setting up a compiler on your operating system. To correlate a C program, we need a compiler. A compiler is a program that converts the program instructions code into machine understandable language, i.e., a binary code that is easily read, understood, and executed by the computer.

As there are so many compilers available in the market for the available programming languages. We use a MINGW-compiler used for the C/C++ programming languages development environment to turn the code into a program using this freely available tool.

Setting Up Code::Blocks IDE on Windows Operating System:

The following steps show the instructions for downloading, installing and running code-block on Windows 2000 / XP / Vista / 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10:

Step 1: Download Code::Blocks

Step 2: Installing Code:: Blocks

Step 3: Running Code:: Blocks

Setting Up Code::Blocks IDE on Apple-MAC Operating System:

The following steps show the instructions for downloading, installing and running code-block on Mac OS.

Step 1: Firstly, install Xcode because for compiler Mac version from Apple relies on the distribution of Xcode.

Step 2: Download Code::Blocks

Step 3: Installing Code:: Blocks

Step 4: Running Code:: Blocks

First C Program:

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    /* printf function displays the content that is
    passed between the double quotes.*/
    printf("Hello Scriptwithme");
    return 0;
}

Output:

Hello Scriptwithme
