3 What is a Hardware?
– Computer Hardware refers to the physical parts of a
computer and related devices.
– Examples of Hardware in a computer are the keyboard,
the monitor, the mouse and the central processing unit.
– In contrast to software, hardware is a physical entity.
4 What is a Software?
– Software is a set of programs, which is designed to
perform a well-defined function.
– Ex: Excel, Word, PowerPoint.
– A program is a sequence of instructions written to solve a
particular problem.
5 Programming Languages
– A programming language is a vocabulary and set of
grammatical rules for instructing a computer or
computing device to perform specific tasks.
– In simple words “A programming language is a set of
commands, instructions, and other syntax use to create a
software program.”
6 What is structured
programming?
– Structured programming is an approach to writing clear and
organized programs.
– Structured programming provides tools such as subroutines
or functions, block structure, control statements etc. which
helps to properly direct the flow of program.
– Structured programing is the set of design and implementation
processes that yield well-structured programs.
7 Structured programming
languages
– C
– C+
– C++
– PERL
– Ruby
– ALGOL
– Pascal
– Etc…
8 C Language
– C programming language is a MUST for students and working professionals to
become a great Software Engineer specially when they are working in Software
Development Domain.
– Here I list down some of the key advantages of learning C Programming:
– Easy to learn
– Structured language
– It produces efficient programs
– It can handle low-level activities
– It can be compiled on a variety of computer platforms
9 C Programming
– C is a powerful structured programming language, build
from
– Variables and type declarations
– Functions
– Statements
– Expressions

21 Structure of C Program
#include <stdio.h>
Header file
main()
Main
{ function
C Statements and Functions;
}
Every
C Statements should end with a
semicolon (;).
22 Basic Program in C
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf(“My first Program");
return 0;
}
23 Basic Program in C cont…
– Then Save it as filename.c
(filename can be any name & .c is extension)
– Then Compile the program
– Then run it
24 int main()
– Program's execution starts from the main function
– Parenthesis used to indicate a function
– int means that main "returns" an integer value
– Braces ({ and }) indicate a block
– The bodies of all functions must be contained in braces
25 Note the followings
– C is a case sensitive programming language
– It means in C printf and Printf will have different meanings
– C has a free-form line structure. End of each C statement
must be marked with a semicolon
– Multiple statements can be on the same line
– White Spaces (ie tab space and space bar ) are ignored
