C Programming Language
Course No. 2300
Description This course is intended to provide experienced programmers with an understanding of the basic elements of the
C programming language. The course uses extensive hands-on workshops to develop a complete application in
C, to reinforce the topics covered in each chapter. By the end of the course, students will have developed and
debugged C programs that use branching, loops, functions, arrays, pointers and structures, and will have used file
I/O functions to read and write data files to disk.
Audience Programmers, systems analysts and managers who will be using the C programming language for development.
Prerequisites Programming experience with at least one other programming language such as Basic, COBOL, or Pascal is helpful
but not required
Objectives • Develop applications that use simple variables for screen output and data capture from the keyboard.
• Use branching to control the flow of program statements.
• Use loops to perform one or more statements a number of times.
• Write applications that use functions to perform structured programming techniques.
• Understand and use arrays and strings in C programs.
• Write programs that use pointers for fundamental operations. Use structures to create and manage
records of data.
• Perform file I/O operations such as reading and writing disk files
Major Topics • Introduction to C
• Building Blocks
• Operators, Expressions, and Statements
• Branching
• Loops
• Functions
• Arrays and Strings
• Pointer Concepts
• Structures
• File I/O
Format Lecture and Hand-On Format
