Recap
2
 C is a high-level language.
 Writing a C code. {editors like gedit, vi}
 Compiling a C code. {gcc –c test.c –o test}
 Executing the object code. {./test}

Some more basics
3
 Keywords
 char, static, if , while, return ..................... Total= about 32
 Data Types
 int , char, float ...………..….. Some more later
 Arithmetic Operators
 + (Plus), - (Minus), * (Multiplication), /(Division)
……….………. Some more later

My first C program!
4
#include <stdio.h>
// program prints hello world
int main() {
printf ("Hello world!");
return 0;
}
Output: Hello world!

Example 1
C Course, Programming club, Fall
2008
5
#include <stdio.h>
// program prints a number of type int
int main() {
int number = 4;
printf (“Number is %d”, number);
return 0;
}
Output: Number is 4

Example 2
2008
6
#include <stdio.h>
// program reads and prints the same thing
int main() {
int number ;
printf (“ Enter a Number: ”);
scanf (“%d”, &number);
printf (“Number is %dn”, number);
return 0;
}
Output : Enter a number: 4
Number is 4

more and more
7
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
/* this program adds
two numbers */
int a = 4; //first number
int b = 5; //second number
int answer = 0; //result
answer = a + b;
}

Note
8
Errors
Compilation
Compiler generally gives the line number at
which the error is present.
Run time
C programs are sequential making the
debugging easier.

Some more Data Types
2008
9
 Primary : int, float, char
 int (signed/unsigned)(2,4Bytes): used to store integers.
 char (signed/unsigned)(1Byte): used to store
characters
 float, double(4,8Bytes): used to store a decimal number.
 User Defined:
 typedef: used to rename a data type
 typedef int integer; can use integer to declare an int.
 enum, struct, union

Some more Arithmetic Operators
10
 Prefix Increment : ++a
 example:
 int a=5;
 b=++a; // value of b=6; a=6;
 Postfix Increment: a++
 example
 int a=5;
 b=a++; //value of b=5; a=6;

Contd…
11
 Modulus (remainder): %
 example:
 12%5 = 2;
 Assignment by addition: +=
 example:
 int a=4;
 a+=1; //(means a=a+1) value of a becomes 5
Can use -, /, *, % also

Contd…
12
 Comparision Operators: <, > , <=, >= , !=, ==, !,
&&, || .
 example:
 int a=4, b=5;
 a<b returns a true(non zero number) value.
 Bitwise Operators: <<, >>, ~, &, | ,^ .
 example
 int a=8;
 a= a>>1; // value of a becomes 4

Operator Precedence
13
 Meaning of a + b * c ?
is it a+(b*c) or (a+b)*c ?
 All operators have precedence over each other
 *, / have more precedence over +, - .
 If both *, / are used, associativity comes into
picture. (more on this later)
 example :
 5+4*3 = 5+12= 17.

Precedence Table
14
Highest on top
++ -- (Postfix)
++ -- (Prefix)
* / %
+ -
<< >>
< >
&
|
&&
||

Input / Output
15
 printf (); //used to print to console(screen)
 scanf (); //used to take an input from console(user).
 example: printf(“%c”, ’a’); scanf(“%d”, &a);
 More format specifiers
%c The character format specifier.
%d The integer format specifier.
%i The integer format specifier (same as %d).
%f The floating-point format specifier.
%o The unsigned octal format specifier.
%s The string format specifier.
%u The unsigned integer format specifier.
%x The unsigned hexadecimal format specifier.
%% Outputs a percent sign.

Some more geek stuff
16
 & in scanf.
 It is used to access the address of the variable used.
 example:
 scanf(%d,&a);
 we are reading into the address of a.
 Data Hierarchy.
 example:
 int value can be assigned to float not vice-versa.
 Type casting.

Home Work
17
 Meaning of
 Syntax
 Semantics of a programming language
 Find the Output:
 value=value++ + value++;
 Value=++value + ++value;
 value=value++ + ++value;
