Introduction of C Programming

C is a procedural programming language that developed by Dennis Ritchie in 1972. C is also known as mother language of all languages. The UNIX operating system, the C compiler, and essentially all UNIX application programs have been written in C. C has now become a widely used professional language for various reasons.

• Easy to learn.
• Easy to Understand.
• Mother Language of Programming.
• It produces efficient programs.
• Structured programming language.
• It can handle low-level activities.
• It can be compiled on a variety of computer platforms.

Advantages of C programming

• Portable language.
• Dynamic memory allocation.
• Structured programming language.
• Use of pointers is required in many cases.
• Implementation of algorithms and data structures
• Less overhead, so less code size which can fit into controller ROM/Flash.

Disadvantage of C Programming

• Lack of Exception Handling.
• C does not have any constructor or destructor.
• Errors or the bugs aren’t detected after each line of code of execution.
• i=It does not support the concept of OOPs.(Inheritance, Polymorphism, Encapsulation, Abstraction, Data Hiding)
