C is an imperative procedural language developed by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs. C implements algorithms and data structures swiftly, facilitating faster computations in programs. This has enabled the use of C in applications requiring higher degrees of calculations like MATLAB and Mathematics. The C language has formed the basis for many languages including C++, C#, Objective - C, csh, D, Java, JavaScript, PHP, Python, Perl, Vala, Verilog and many more. C code is 'closer' to the machine, which makes it a good tool for those who want to really play around with the intricate details of the working inside a computer. This book is highly informative for beginners who do not have any pre-knowledge in programming. It serves as a detailed beginner source of information especially for college students looking to learn basics of coding much easily. It is suitable for students and researchers of any discipline who are involved in automation, digitization and computerization. We have included simple examples and sample applications in order to make the students and researchers to communicate with the machines effortlessly and indeed implement their research problems.
