C Basics

This repository contains basic programs written in the C programming language. It's intended as a learning resource for beginners who are just starting to learn C.

Programs Included

1. Hello World: A simple program that prints "Hello, World!" to the console.
2. Variables and Data Types: Programs demonstrating the declaration and use of variables, as well as different data types in C.
3. Input and Output: Examples of taking input from the user and displaying output using printf() and scanf().
4. Operators: Demonstrations of arithmetic, relational, logical, and bitwise operators in C.
5. Control Structures: Examples of if-else statements, switch-case statements, and loops (for, while, do-while).
6. Functions: Programs showcasing the creation and use of functions in C.
7. Arrays: Examples of single-dimensional and multi-dimensional arrays, along with array manipulation.
8. Pointers: Programs demonstrating the use of pointers in C, including pointer arithmetic and dynamic memory allocation.
9. Strings: Examples of string manipulation, including string input/output, string concatenation, and string comparison.
10. Structures: Demonstrations of creating and using structures in C.

Getting Started

To run these programs, you need a C compiler installed on your system. Below are the instructions for Windows (using Visual Studio Code) and Linux:

Prerequisites

For Windows (using Visual Studio Code)

• Install Visual Studio Code (VS Code) from the official website.
• Install the C/C++ extension for Visual Studio Code, which provides IntelliSense, debugging, and code browsing support for C/C++.

For Linux

• Install GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) using your package manager. For example, on Ubuntu, you can install it with the command:

  sudo apt-get install gcc

Running the Programs

For Windows (using Visual Studio Code)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/GamerzUnite/C-Basics.git

2. Open Visual Studio Code and navigate to the directory containing the program you want to run.

3. Open the program file (e.g., hello_world.c) in Visual Studio Code.

4. Press Ctrl + Shift + B to open the command palette and select the appropriate build task (e.g., C/C++: gcc.exe build active file).

5. Once the program is built, you can run it by pressing F5 or selecting Run > Start Debugging from the menu.

For Linux

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/GamerzUnite/C-Basics.git

2. Navigate to the directory containing the program you want to run.

3. Compile the program using GCC. For example, to compile hello_world.c:

   gcc hello_world.c -o hello_world

4. Run the compiled executable:

   ./hello_world
