Introduction


C is a programming language that is extremely popular, simple, and flexible to use. It was designed and written by a man named Dennis Ritchie. In the late seventies.

It was mainly developed for system programming. The main features of the C language include low–level memory access, a clean style, these features make C language suitable for system programming (operating system) or compiler development.

C is also known as the “mother of programming languages” because it’s the basics of many other languages which we are using currently like java, python, etc. and also many other languages have taken syntax directly/indirectly from the C language like the syntax of Java, PHP, JavaScript, and many other languages are mainly based on the C language.
