  1. INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING IN C C is a general-purpose high level language that was originally developed by Dennis Ritchie for the Unix operating system. It was first implemented on the Digital Eqquipment Corporation PDP-Il computer in 1972. The Unix operating system and virtually all Unix applications are written in the C language. C has now become a widely used professional language for various reasons. Easy to learn Structured language It produces efficient programs. It can handle low-level activities. It can be compiled on a variety of computers. Facts about C C was invented to write an operating system called UNIX. C is a successor of B language which was introduced around 1970 The language was formalized in 1988 by the American National Standard Institue (ANSI). By 1973 UNIX OS almost totally written in C. Today C is the most widely used System Programming Language. Most of the state of the art software have been implemented using C Why to use C ? C was initially used for system development work, in particular the programs that make-up the operating system. C was adopted as a system development language because it produces code that runs nearly as fast as code written in assembly language. Some examples of the use of C might be: Operating Systems Language Compilers Assemblers Text Editors Print Spoolers Network Drivers Modern Programs Data Bases Language Interpreters Utilities
  2. C Program File All the C programs are writen into text files with extension "vi" editor to write your C program into a file. C Compilers '.c" for example hello.c. You can use When you write any program in C language then to run that program you need to compile that program using a C Compiler which converts your program into a language understandable by a computer. This is called machine language (ie. binary format). So before proceeding, make sure you have C Compiler available at your computer. It comes along with all flavors of Unix and Linux. If you are working over Unix or Linux then you can type gcc -v or cc -v and check the result. You can ask your system administrator or you can take help from anyone to identify an available C Compiler at your computer.
