Complete C Programming Guide

1. Introduction to C Programming

C is a general-purpose programming language developed in the early 1970s by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs.

It is a powerful language that has influenced many modern programming languages.

Why learn C?

- It builds a strong foundation in programming concepts.

- C is used in system programming, embedded systems, operating systems, and more.

- It is extremely fast and efficient.

Basic Structure of a C Program:

```c

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

printf("Hello, World!\n");

return 0;

```

Output:

Hello, World!

2. Data Types and Variables

Data types define the type of data a variable can hold. Common data types in C include:

- int: for integers (e.g., 1, -5, 100)

- float: for floating-point numbers (e.g., 1.5, -3.2)

- double: for double-precision floating-point numbers

- char: for characters (e.g., 'a', 'Z')

- void: represents no value (used for functions)

Example:

```c

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

int age = 18;

float weight = 65.5;

char grade = 'A';

printf("Age: %d\n", age);

printf("Weight: %.2f\n", weight);

printf("Grade: %c\n", grade);

return 0;

```

Output:

Age: 18

Weight: 65.50

Grade: A

3. Control Structures

Control structures manage the flow of execution.

1. if-else statement:

```c

if (condition) {

// code if true

} else {

// code if false

```

2. switch statement:

```c

switch (value) {

case 1:

// code

break;

default:

// default code

```

3. Loops (while, for, do-while):

```c

for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {

printf("%d\n", i);

```
