Widely used for both systems and application development, C is a
powerful language at the heart of many more modern languages, like
JavaScript and Objective-C. In this course, professor Isac Artzi
dissects the anatomy of C, from data types, strings, and variables to
simple functions. He'll show how these basic elements fit together in
control structures like loops and if-else statements?where the real
logic behind your code comes into play. Plus, learn how C organizes
information into arrays and how you can manage memory resources with
pointers.
C is a great first step for new programmers, and a way to broaden and
deepen your knowledge if you've already programmed for a while.
