C Programming - 2. Environment Setup

In Windows machine

Follow these following steps-

Step 1:

Step 2:

Download the code-blocks software


Step 3:

          Install it

step 4:

             If you run it the first time it will ask you to set gcc default compiler.

              Just Click "OK" Button

Step 5: 

         create a new file

step 6:


         save it as any name you want but with .c extension

         example : first.c

step 7:


         type this code and save it.

         #include<stdio.h>

         int main()
         {
              printf("Welcome\n");
              
              return 0;
         }

step 8:

Run the Program

         by pressing F9
            
                 or

         clicking "Build and Run" button  on the code-blocks window


Now if the code runs without any error then you are all set 😎

In Linux machine

Step 1:

         Open terminal

         Use the mouse to do it

              or

   Ctrl+alt+T shortcut to open it

Step 2:


                 type the command:

                                                 gedit <name>.c&

                                                 here, the name can be anything you want but use the reasonable one


                                                Example: gedit first.c&

Step 3:


          type this code and save it.

         #include<stdio.h>

         int main()
         {
              printf("Welcome\n");
              
              return 0;
         }

Step 4:

         
         Compile :
                         gcc <name>.c -o <name>

         Run:
                        ./<name>


         For my case this will be:
         
                               compile : gcc first.c -o first
                               run:    ./first

Now if the code runs without any error then you are all set 😎




Happy Coding

C Programming - 3. Bits & Bytes

Bits Bits means the measurement of computer memory where we can store binary number or word. N-bits memory can store n-bits binary number or words for example :          1-bit memory can store either  1 or 0 because 1 and 0 are 1-bit binary numbers          2-bit memory can store:                                                   00                                                   01                   ...

C Programming - 4.5 The printf() function

We have been talking about this guy for so long and he finally came And you will see him most of the time whenever you write a C code. So, What printf() function do? It basically prints everything within the double quotation . for example: printf("I am a programmer"); this prints:                     I am a Programmer In full code that will be- #include <stdio.h> int main() {      printf("I am a Programmer");      return 0; } Now, see another code  #include <stdio.h> int main() {      printf("I am a Programmer");      printf("I am a Programmer");      return 0; } the output will be:          I am a ProgrammerI am a Programmer The output is like this because we haven't use newline character to indicate the en...

C Programming - 4.2 The main() function

The main() function is the entry 🔑 point of a C program Now look at the code what I wrote #include <stdio.h> int main() {      printf("I am a Programmer\n");      return 0; } OK, I wrote, int main() here "int" represents the Integer number is, an Integer number is a whole number not a fraction one like 1,2,0,10,55 etc. now, the question ❓ is- Why I wrote int main() We all know mathematical function right. for example :                         f(x) = bx+c this function  f(x)  has a return value, let's say it's Integer , then for C it is int C functions are quite similar to mathematical functions , the basic format of a C function is return_type function_name() { } by writing int main(), we indicate that this main() function will return an int number. that's ...
