Introduction to C Language Programming

X24 (2 semester units in EECS)

This introductory course for nonprogrammers focuses on the C programming language and covers fundamental programming concepts. On successful completion of the course, you will be able to write simple C language applications and undertake courses that assume some background in computer programming, such as C++, C#, Java, and Perl. Topics include variables, data types, functions, control structures, pointers, strings, arrays, and dynamic allocation principles. The course requires access to any programming environment that allows you to write, edit, compile, link, and debug a C program.

Prerequisite: While no previous programming experience is required, you should have access to a computer hosting a C/C++ compiler or access to the Internet to allow you to download and install a C/C++ compiler. Familiarity with fundamental programming language concepts such as variables, data types and compiling source code is helpful.
