Mastering C: A Tutorial for Progammers in Other Languages
About this course
Would you like to be able to code in one of the most important, influential, and popular programming languages ever created? Perhaps you're frustrated by the limitations and inefficiency of other programming languages, but intimidated by C's fiercesome reputation. Would you like to to be able to create compiled, native apps?Not to worry, this course will demystify C and show you how to leverage C's incredible speed and efficiency.Unlock the power of C with this hands-on programming course designed for those with a bit of coding experience who are ready to dive into the language that has shaped modern computing. We'll start by discussing C and its unique characteristics, and from there, you’ll learn how to work with variables, use control flow statements including loops and conditions, and we'll delve into compound data types (arrays, structs, unions).As the course progresses, you’ll learn how to structure your code with functions and you'll gain a deep understanding of pointers, one of C’s most potent features. You’ll discover how to manipulate strings, leverage useful standard functions, and how to handle text and binary files for data persistence. We’ll unlock the power of bitwise operators, explain how to effectively use the preprocessor and macros, and we'll cover error handling so you can create robust, reliable code.The grand finale? We’ll pull everything together as you create your own animated screensaver-style program: a stunning "particle fire explosion" animation. By the end, you’ll have the knowledge and confidence to write efficient, high-performance C programs, and a visually striking project to show off your new skills.
