C: Introduction for Those New to Programming Prerequisites
A course in basic C programming intended for beginners to programming only. The aim of the course is to get everyone to the stage of being able to write small utility programs in C for carrying out simple calculations and data manipulation.
Whilst a detailed knowledge of Unix is not necessary, attendees should be capable of creating and manipulating text files on a Unix system (as covered on the first day of the Unix Introduction).
- constants and variables
- numerical calculations
- reading and writing files
- conditional statements
- arrays
- library and user-written functions
Each session will begin with a lecture, followed by a practical session in which attendees will have an opportunity to work on some simple programming exercises for themselves.
