Computer programs (or software) are what make computers work. Without software, modern computers are just complicated machines for turning electricity into heat. It’s software on your computer that runs your operating system, browser, email, games, movie player – just about everything. With the right skills and experience, a programmer can craft software to solve an unlimited number of problems.

In our daily life, we use lots of software like calculators, music apps, games, and so on. Moreover, we use different browsers like Chrome, Opera, Mozilla Firefox and these are also software. So, if you want to make your own software, you must have a basic knowledge of programming. In this course, you will learn basic concepts of programming with the C language. Dennis Ritchie developed C Language for creating system applications that directly interact with the hardware devices such as drivers, kernels, etc. C programming is considered as the base for other programming languages, that is why it is known as the mother language. Also, it is very easy and gives you the fundamental knowledge of programming. So, as a beginner, you can start your programming in C. Moreover,

• C helps you to understand the internal architecture of a computer, how the computer stores and retrieves information
• After learning C, it will be much easier to learn other programming languages like Java, Python, etc
• Opportunity to work on open source projects. C programming is at the core of some largest open-source projects such as Linux kernel, Python interpreter, SQLite database, etc.
• It produces efficient programs
• C can handle low-level activities
• We can compile C programs on a variety of computer platforms.

After this course, you will be able to

• Learn basic concepts of programming
• Know the data types and operators
• Learn different conditions and loops
• Build strong problem-solving skills
• Make different projects in the C language
