C Programming Tutorial for Beginners

This C programming tutorial for beginners created by startertutorials provides all the basics of c programming language beginning from the fundamental concepts and gradually building your way to more advanced programming concepts.

About C Language

Now, let’s learn some basic things about C programming language.

C is one of the most widely used programming languages across the world. Programming related concepts of many programming languages were derived from C. C was developed by Dennis Ritchie.

C language is a versatile and foundational programming language. It finds application in diverse domains due to its efficiency, portability, and close-to-hardware capabilities. It is widely used in system and kernel development, enabling the creation of operating systems and drivers. Its low-level memory manipulation and pointer features are crucial in embedded systems programming.

C is a popular choice for software development, facilitating the construction of applications ranging from desktop software to games, owing to its performance-oriented nature. Additionally, its prevalence in networking and web development arises from its ability to interface with hardware and manage data structures efficiently. In summary, C language is utilized in system programming, embedded systems, software development, and networking, offering powerful tools for a wide range of applications.

This C Programming tutorial is intended for beginners who have no idea of programming. You are suggested to follow this tutorial in top-down fashion, i.e., start with first topic, then second and so on.

If you are from a non-programming background or non-computer science background, and want to learn the basic computer and programming concepts, start your journey with this basics of a computer tutorial.

If you are beginner in computer science and already know the basic computer and programming concepts, start your journey with this introduction to C language tutorial.
