What is Programming
l “Programming is how you get computers to solve problems.”
l Computer programming is the process of performing a particular computation (or more generally, accomplishing a specific computing result), usually by designing/building an executable computer program. Programming involves tasks such as analysis, generating algorithms, profiling algorithms' accuracy and resource consumption, and the implementation of algorithms (usually in a chosen programming language, commonly referred to as coding).
What is Programming Language
A programming language is a computer language that is used by programmers (developers) to communicate with computers. It is a set of instructions written in any specific language ( C, C++, Java, Python) to perform a specific task.
Why Learn C!
l Nobody can learn C++ or Java directly
l Major parts of popular operating systems like Windows, UNIX, Linux are still written in C.
l when it comes to performance (speed of execution) nothing beats C.
l C is the language of choice while building such operating systems and programs.
l Many popular gaming frameworks have been built using the C language.
l Being a middle-level language, C reduces the gap between the low-level and high-level languages. It can be used for writing operating systems as well as doing application-level programming.
l C becomes a very user-friendly language
