Hi!
My new Pluralsight course on Getting Started with the C Language is LIVE!
In this course you’ll learn in a practical way, with a combination of slides and demo code, the basic aspects of the C programming language and tools, so that you can start being productive with the C language.
Starting from this course page, you can freely play the course overview, and read a more detailed course description and the table of content.
Some of the major topics include: understanding the role of the C compiler, and compiling from both the command line and using an IDE; learning about common basic types and basic I/O; learning the syntax for decision making in C (e.g. the if-else and switch statements) and how to write loops (e.g. for, while and do-while); the basics of working with strings; learning how to write your own functions. Pointers will be introduced, as well.
I’ll also show some subtle C beginner’s bugs, I will analyze them and discuss how to fix them.
These are some feedback notes from my reviewers:
