CPU
All computations take place here in order for the
computer to perform a designated task.
It has a large number of registers which temporarily
store data and programs (instructions).
It has circuitry to carry out arithmetic and logic
operations, take decisions, etc.
It retrieves instructions from the memory, interprets
(decodes) them, and perform the requested
operation.
Main Memory
Uses semiconductor technology
Allows direct access
Memory sizes in the range of 256 Mbytes to

Gbytes are typical today.
Some measures to be remembered

1 K = 210 (= 1024)
1 M = 220 (= one million approx.)
1 G = 230 (= one billion approx.)

Main difference from a calculator.
What is a program?
Set of instructions for carrying out a specific task.
Where are programs stored?

In secondary memory, when first created.
Brought into main memory, during execution.

Number System :: The Basics

We are accustomed to using the so-called
decimal number system.
Ten digits :: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
Every digit position has a weight which is a
power of 10.
Example:
234 = 2 x 102 + 3 x 101 + 4 x 100
250.67 = 2 x 102 + 5 x 101 + 0 x 100 + 6 x 10-1
+ 7 x 10-2
14
Contd.
A digital computer is built out of tiny
electronic switches.
From the viewpoint of ease of manufacturing and
reliability, such switches can be in one of two
states, ON and OFF.
A switch can represent a digit in the so-called
binary number system, 0 and 1.
A computer works based on the binary

number system.
15
Concept of Bits and Bytes

Bit
A single binary digit (0 or 1).
Nibble
A collection of four bits (say, 0110).
Byte
A collection of eight bits (say, 01000111).
Word
Depends on the computer.
Typically 4 or 8 bytes (that is, 32 or 64 bits).
16
Contd.
A k-bit decimal number
Can express unsigned integers in the range
0 to 10k 1
For k=3, from 0 to 999.
A k-bit binary number

Can express unsigned integers in the range
0 to 2k 1
17
Classification of Software
Two categories:
1. Application Software
Used to solve a particular problem.
Editor, financial accounting, weather forecasting, etc.
2. System Software
Helps in running other programs.
Compiler, operating system, etc.
18
Computer Languages
Machine Language
Expressed in binary.
Directly understood by the computer.
Not portable; varies from one machine type to
another.
Program written for one type of machine will not run
on another type of machine.
Difficult to use in writing programs.
19
Contd.
Assembly Language
Mnemonic form of machine language.
Easier to use as compared to machine language.
For example, use ADD instead of 10110100.
Not portable (like machine language).

Requires a translator program called assembler.

21
High-Level Language
Machine language and assembly language are
called low-level languages.
They are closer to the machine.
Difficult to use.
High-level languages are easier to use.

They are closer to the programmer.
Examples:
Fortran, Cobol, C, C++, Java.
Requires an elaborate process of translation.

Using a software called compiler.
They are portable across platforms.

Some Terminologies
Algorithm / Flowchart
A step-by-step procedure for solving a particular
problem.
Should be independent of the programming
language.
Program
A translation of the algorithm/flowchart into a
form that can be processed by a computer.
Typically written in a high-level language like C,
C++, Java, etc.
30
Variables and Constants

Most important concept for problem solving
using computers.
All temporary results are stored in terms of
variables and constants.
The value of a variable can be changed.
The value of a constant do not change.
Where are they stored?

In main memory.
31
Contd.
How does memory look like (logically)?
As a list of storage locations, each having a unique
address.
Variables and constants are stored in these
storage locations.
Variable is like a house, and the name of a variable
is like the address of the house.
Different people may reside in the house, which is like
the contents of a variable.

Programming in C
54
Introduction to C
C is a general-purpose, structured programming language.
Resembles other high-level structured programming languages, such
as Pascal and Fortran-77.
Also contains additional features which allow it to be used at a lower
level.
C can be used for applications programming as well as for

systems programming.
There are only 32 keywords and its strength lies in its built-in
functions.
C is highly portable, since it relegated much computerdependent features to its library functions.
55
History of C
Originally developed in the 1970s by Dennis Ritchie at AT&T
Bell Laboratories.
Outgrowth of two earlier languages BCPL and B.
Popularity became widespread by the mid 1980s, with the

availability of compilers for various platforms.
Standardization has been carried out to make the various C
implementations compatible.
American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
GNU
56
Structure of a C program
Every C program consists of one or more
functions.
One of the functions must be called main.

The program will always begin by executing the main
function.
Each function must contain:
A function heading, which consists of the function

name, followed by an optional list of arguments
enclosed in parentheses.
A list of argument declarations.
A compound statement, which comprises the
remainder of the function.
57
Contd.
Each compound statement is enclosed within
a pair of braces: { and }
The braces may contain combinations of
elementary statements and other compound
statements.
Comments may appear anywhere in a

program, enclosed within delimiters /* and
*/.
Example:
a = b + c;
/* ADD TWO NUMBERS */

58
Sample C program #1
Header file includes functions

for input/output
#include <stdio.h>
Main function is executed when

you run the program. (Later we will
see how to pass its parameters)
main()
{
printf (\n Our first look at a C program \n);

}
Curly braces within which
statements are executed one
after another.
Our first look at a C program

Statement for
printing the sentence
within double quotes
(..). \n denotes end
of line.
59
Sample C program #2
#include <stdio.h>
main()
Integers variables declared
{
before their usage.
int
a, b, c;
a = 10;
b = 20;
c = a + b;
printf (\n The sum of %d and %d is %d\n,
a,b,c);
}
Control character for printing
value of a in decimal digits.
The sum of 10 and 20 is 30
60
Sample C program #3
#include <stdio.h>
/* FIND THE LARGEST OF THREE NUMBERS */
main()
{
Comments within /* .. */
Input statement for reading

three variables from the keyboard
int
a, b, c;
scanf (%d %d %d, &a, &b, &c);
if ((a>b) && (a>c))
/* Composite condition check */
Conditional
printf (\n Largest is %d, a);
statement else
if (b>c)
/* Simple condition check */
printf (\n Largest is %d, b);
else
printf (\n Largest is %d, c);
}
61
Sample C program #4
Preprocessor statement.
Replace PI by 3.1415926
before compilation.
Example of a function
Called as per need from
Main programme.
#include <stdio.h>
#define PI 3.1415926
/* Compute the area of a circle */

main()
{
float radius, area;
float myfunc (float radius);
scanf (%f, &radius);
area = myfunc (radius);
printf (\n Area is %f \n, area);
float myfunc (float r)

{
float a;
a = PI * r * r;
return (a); /* return result */
}
Function called.
}
62
main() is also a function

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
int
a, b, c;
a = 10;
b = 20;
c = a + b;
printf (\n The sum of %d and %d is %d\n,
a,b,c);
}
63
Desirable Programming Style

Clarity
The program should be clearly written.
It should be easy to follow the program logic.
Meaningful variable names

Make variable/constant names meaningful to enhance program clarity.
area instead of a
radius instead of r
Program documentation
Insert comments in the program to make it easy to understand.
Never use too many comments.
64
Contd.
Program indentation
Use proper indentation.
Structure of the program should be immediately
visible.
65
Indentation Example #1 :: Good Style

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
float radius, area;

{
float a;
a = PI * r * r;
}

66
Indentation Example #1 :: Bad Style

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
int a, b, c;
scanf (%d %d %d, &a, &b, &c);
if ((a>b) && (a>c))
/* Composite condition check */
else
if (b>c)
/* Simple condition check */
else
}
68
Indentation Example #2 :: Bad Style

#include <stdio.h>

Identifiers
Names given to various program elements
(variables, constants, functions, etc.)
May consist of letters, digits and the underscore
(_) character, with no space between.
First character must be a letter.
An identifier can be arbitrary long.
Some C compilers recognize only the first few
characters of the name (16 or 31).
Case sensitive
area, AREA and Area are all different.

Examples :: 2, +, Z
Some special backslash characters

\n
\t
\
\
\\
\0
new line
horizontal tab
single quote
double quote
backslash
null
80
String Constants
Sequence of characters enclosed in double
quotes.
The characters may be letters, numbers, special
characters and blank spaces.
Examples:
nice, Good Morning, 3+6, 3, C
Differences from character constants:

C and C are not equivalent.
C has an equivalent integer value while C does not.
81
Variables
It is a data name that can be used to store a
data value.
Unlike constants, a variable may take different
values in memory during execution.
Variable names follow the naming convention
for identifiers.
Examples :: temp, speed, name2, current
82
Example
int a, b, c;
char x;
Variables
a = 3;
b = 50;
c = a b;
x = d;
Constants
b = 20;
a = a + 1;
x = G;
83
Declaration of Variables
There are two purposes:

1. It tells the compiler what the variable name is.
2. It specifies what type of data the variable will hold.
General syntax:
data-type variable-list;
Examples:
int velocity, distance;
int a, b, c, d;
float temp;
char flag, option;
84
A First Look at Pointers

A variable is assigned a specific memory location.
For example, a variable speed is assigned memory
location 1350.
Also assume that the memory location contains the
data value 100.
When we use the name speed in an expression, it
refers to the value 100 stored in the memory location.
distance = speed * time;
Thus every variable has an address (in memory),

and its contents.
85
Adress and Content

speed
int speed;
speed=100;
1349
1350
100
1351
speed
100
1352
&speed
1350
86
Contd.
In C terminology, in an expression
speed refers to the contents of the memory
location.
&speed refers to the address of the memory
location.
Examples:
printf (%f %f %f, speed, time, distance);
scanf (%f %f, &speed, &time);
87
An Example
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
float speed, time, distance;
Address of speed
scanf (%f %f, &speed, &time);

distance = speed * time;
printf (\n The distance traversed is: \n, distance);
}
Content of speed
88
Assignment Statement
Used to assign values to variables, using the
assignment operator (=).
General syntax:
variable_name = expression;
Examples:
velocity = 20;
b = 15; temp = 12.5;
A = A + 10;
v = u + f * t;
s = u * t + 0.5 * f * t * t;
89
Contd.
A value can be assigned to a variable at the
time the variable is declared.
int speed = 30;
char flag = y;
Several variables can be assigned the same

value using multiple assignment operators.
a = b = c = 5;
flag1 = flag2 = y;
speed = flow = 0.0;

Examples: Arithmetic expressions

a+b*cd/e
a*b+d%ef
ab+c+d
x*y*z
a+b+c*d*e
a + (b * c) (d / e)
a * ( b) + (d % e) f
(((a b) + c) + d)
((x * y) * z)
(a + b) + ((c * d) * e)
96
Integer Arithmetic
When the operands in an arithmetic
expression are integers, the expression is
called integer expression, and the operation is
called integer arithmetic.
Integer arithmetic always yields integer
values.
97
Real Arithmetic
Arithmetic operations involving only real or
floating-point operands.
Since floating-point values are rounded to the
number of significant digits permissible, the final
value is an approximation of the final result.
1.0 / 3.0 * 3.0 will have the value 0.99999 and not 1.0
The modulus operator cannot be used with real

operands.

Mixed-mode Arithmetic
When one of the operands is integer and the
other is real, the expression is called a mixedmode arithmetic expression.
If either operand is of the real type, then only
real arithmetic is performed, and the result is
a real number.
25 / 10 2
25 / 10.0 2.5
Some more issues will be considered later.

Problem of value assignment

Assignment operation
variable= expression_value;
or
variable1=variable2;
Data type of the RHS should be compatible
with that of LHS.
e.g. four byte floating point number is not
allowed to be assigned to a two byte
integer variable.

Type Casting
int x;
float r=3.0;
Type casting of a floating

point expression to an integer
variable.
x= (int)(2*r);
double perimeter;
float pi=3.14;
int r=3;
Type casting
to double
perimeter=2.0* (double) pi * (double) r;

Relational Operators
Used to compare two quantities.
<
is less than
>
is greater than
<=
is less than or equal to
>=
is greater than or equal to
==
is equal to
!=
is not equal to
102
Examples
10 > 20
25 < 35.5
12 > (7 + 5)
is false
is true
is false
When arithmetic expressions are used on

either side of a relational operator, the
arithmetic expressions will be evaluated first
and then the results compared.
a + b > c d is the same as (a+b) > (c+d)
103
Examples
Sample code segment in C
if (x > y)
printf (%d is larger\n, x);
else
printf (%d is larger\n, y);
104
Logical Operators
There are two logical operators in C (also called
logical connectives).
&& Logical AND
| | Logical OR
What they do?

They act upon operands that are themselves logical
expressions.
The individual logical expressions get combined into
more complex conditions that are true or false.
105
Logical AND
Result is true if both the operands are true.
Logical OR
ResultXis true if at least
one Xof &&
the Yoperands
Y
X | |are
Y true.

Input / Output
printf
Performs output to the standard output device
(typically defined to be the screen).
It requires a format string in which we can specify:
The text to be printed out.
Specifications on how to print the values.
printf ("The number is %d.\n", num) ;
The format specification %d causes the value listed
after the format string to be embedded in the output as
a decimal number in place of %d.
Output will appear as: The number is 125.
107
scanf
Performs input from the standard input device, which
is the keyboard by default.
It requires a format string and a list of variables into
which the value received from the input device will be
stored.
It is required to put an ampersand (&) before the
names of the variables.
scanf ("%d", &size) ;
scanf ("%c", &nextchar) ;
scanf ("%f", &length) ;
scanf (%d %d, &a, &b);
