Learn to Code in C

C programming language is one of the most used languages of all time. Many later languages such as C# or Java have borrowed from C. Knowing C gives you a perspective on what is going on underneath of the higher level languages such as C# or Java. Understanding C will give you more insight into how the constructs in higher level languages are implemented.



If you like to make software development your career learn C. (I did not say C++.) This language is much closer to the machine than modern languages like Python or Java and its knowledge gives you much better understanding of programming. Once you learn C programming you can then easily learn other programming languages.


C is still used a lot for embedded hardware programming, systems programming and in open source software i.e. the Linux kernel is written in C. Also all of the modern languages such as C++, Java, C#, Python, Objective-C may interact with C.

To learn to code in C you must start writing C programs as quickly and as soon as possible.Here is a link to a video to get you started:
