Hello


C language is one of the most important languages in the history of programming. The system you are using now is programed using it. Unix and all of its offsprings have been coded using it. it is an easy langugae if you understand what does langugae mean??


Langugae means a way of communication. So it has grammers and syntax. The most important point differs programming languages from human languages is that when a human makes a mistake when they talk to each other the pther part tries to guess and understand it. In the case of the computer it must be correct.


Using C you can create a complete Operating System. Many books and websites are available online.

Reply:the c has an importance that it can supports to implement any application.but without GUI inter face .ie we can use c as back end,and any Lang such as HTML using java as front end
Reply:C is probably the most important language for me. With C, we create applications and operating systems (Windows and UNIX/LINUX are created with C. Computer languages such as Visual Basic and JAVA are all created in C language. Computer viruses are mostly created in C, too.





C lacks in visual aspects, but it is very good in registry and memory management. It takes more time to build an application using C, compared to building apps in VB. But C provides us with sooo much control over everything the machine has to offer(machine resources). There are times when I have to return to C when my VB fail to help.

Reply:It is most important base for any type of programming. Basic steps are c -%26gt; c++ -%26gt; Java -%26gt; Adv.Java. I know because I'm in third year Engg. IT. I did it same way. Thats the only right path.
Reply:C came before C++. C isn't used anymore is it?





I think many computer games are done in C++
Reply:c is an basic to all structured languages.
