C is the language of choice for the development of efficient, portable software. C combines small size, the structure of modern high-level languages, and the low-level machine access of assembly language, yielding a powerful general-purpose language that support both application and operating system level software. Standard C programs, using standard library functions, can be compiled and run without change on UNIX, Linux, Microsoft Windows and many other systems.
The best way to learn a language is to have hands-on experience under the guidance of an expert instructor. Throughout the course, you use Standard C software development systems for extensive hands-on exercises in writing and executing programs in the C language. |
