Introduction to Programming and C
Language
In this course, we will be discussing programming in C
language. In this first video, we will cover some basic concepts
such as the need for programming, programming languages,
and how to write programs in C language.
The Need for Programming
Computers are general-purpose machines that can perform any
computational task. However, they can only understand
instructions in binary language, which is a combination of 0s
and 1s. To communicate with a computer, we need to write a
sequence of instructions or a program. Programs are essential
for computers to perform specific tasks.
Programming Languages
Since computers can only understand instructions in binary
language, we need programming languages that can translate
human-readable code to computer-readable code.
Programming languages have their own set of rules, syntaxes,
and characters, which we need to learn before writing
programs. High-level languages such as C, C++, and Java are
more understandable to humans than low-level languages such
as machine language and assembly language.
C Language
C language was developed by Dennis Ritchie in 1972 at Bell
Laboratories. It is a high-level programming language that is
widely used in system programming, embedded systems, and
operating systems. C language allows for portability, which
means that programs written in C can run on different
machines without modification.
The Development of C Language
C language is considered the successor of B language and was
developed by Ken Thompson. Its main purpose was to write the
kernel of the Unix operating system since the limitations of B
language required a more powerful language. C is a system
