Hi,
programmer guys please write a small introduction to C programming.this is for absolute nuts like me and other newbies.also explains why we should program using latest IDE's or gcc compiler and NOT to use turbo c antique compilers.the ISO standards etc.Will be thankful if you contribute.
Also only C Programming not C++.

^^ Firstly, I wonder, why U need C Basics yaar ?? U R a masterpiece in Linux.

...but not in programming

you are good in programming..toh,why wait,give a HOWTO.

this is first program

Code:

#include <stdio.h>  // Include this stdio text file because it contains some code required for using printf

main()  // Every program must have main function 
{
 printf("I Won't Participate in OS Wars");   // Every statement must be ended by ';'
}

Output

Code:

I Won't Participate in OS Wars

whatever follows after // is commenting in code.. compiler ignores it untill it encounters the new line character

to put a newline character just press ENTER !

LOL!thx

@akshay:I am always supporting the right thing- FOSS.

I will participate in OS war threads.
