what is C programming ?

Before getting started with C programming, lets get familiarized with the language first.
C is a Low level structured programming Language developed by "Denis Ritchie" in 1973 at bell lab's. Initially It was written to develop the Unix operating system but later become suitable for System Programming and as general purpose programming language.                                                                       As the language was written as a low level language it was rather easy for the machine to understand the c language then other language of that time.
C is a general-purpose programming language used for wide range of applications from Operating systems like Windows and iOS to software that is used for creating 3D movies.
C programming is highly efficient. That’s the main reason why it’s very popular despite being more than 44 years old.
Standard C programs are portable. The source code written in one system works in another operating system without any change.
As mentioned, it’s a good language to start learning programming. If you know C programming, you will not just understand how your program works, but will also be able to create a mental picture on how a computer works.
