Goals	The aim of this course is to introduce the basic programming language concepts using C Programming Language. At the end of this couse, students will not only learn the syntax and semantics of C programming language, but also complete many difficult programming assignments and lab applications.
Course Content	Introduction to Programming Languages and C Programming Language, Sequential Structures, Expressions and Statements ( Evaluation of an expression, precedence and associativity rules, parantheses rule, assignment statements, increment and decrement operators, compound assignment operators, nested assignments, basic input/output library functions, type conversions, simple macros),Selective Structure (Logical operators, relational operators, conditional expression operator, conditional statements, nested conditional statements, dangling else problem, multiway conditional statements, constant MCS-switch statements), Repetitive structure (Pre-test loop structure, post-test loop structure, while statements, do-while loops, for loops, infinite loops, nested loops, loop interruption, null statement, comma operator), Function definition, local variable declarations, return statement, function call, call by value/reference conceptes, Function prototypes, external variables, storage classes, automatic/static variables, recursion, Basics, array declaration, accessing array elements, initialization, passing arrays as function arguments, Basics of pointers, address and dereferencing ops, pointer type declaration, pointer assignment and initialization, Functions and pointers, call by reference, arrays vs pointers, strings and pointers, string library functions, multi-dimensional arrays and pointers, pointer arrays, command-line aguments, dynamic memory management, Stucture definition, structure variable declarations, intialization, accessing members, structure assignments, nested structures, pointers to structures, structures and functions, Arrays of structures, self-referencial structures, linked lists, trees, unions, Bitwise operators, precedence and associativity rules, left/right shift operators, bit fields, Pre-processors and File Operations.
Learning Outcomes	1) Acquisition of the basics of a general purpose, imperative programming language constructs; can implement programs using using sequential, selective and repetitive structures. 2) Ability to write C programs that correspond to mathematical expressions 3) Ability to design and implement functions. 4) Ability to design and implement user defined types. 5) Ability to develop applications that work with pointers using dynamic memory allocation. 6) Ability to design and implement an algorithm in order to solve a specific problem on computers. 7) Ability to gain primary file processing ability using C programming language.
