What is C?

C is a legendary system programming language. It is one of most important low level languages in computer industry. It was created at Bell-Labs by Dennis Ritchie after B language in 1973. It is the default language for UNIX and Linux platforms. Here you can learn C fundamentals.

Learning C

In the next tutorial we organize pages in logical order to learn basic concepts of programming using C language. On each page there is a link at the bottom to read next page. On top-right of every page there is an index link to return here. If you read this first time, ignore the index for now and continue reading the sequential content page by page.

Run C Examples

For runing C we use our favorite website, that can support almost any language. I prefer to use this website to store examples for your training. You do not need to install a C compiler on your computer. You can log-in using your personal GitHub account and you can create new examples. However if you wish, you can install a compiler and IDE on your own computer eventually later.
