  • Number of Courses9 courses
  • Duration15 hours
  • Skill IQ available Skill IQ

C is a very powerful, widely used structured programming language that is machine-independent and extensively used to write various applications, Operating Systems like Windows and Linux, and many other complex programs like Oracle database, Git, Python interpreter, and more.

As the primary language used in many scientific programming situations and forms (or is the basis for), the core of the modern languages Java and C++, and one of the most widely used languages in the world today, learning this foundational language will be beneficial whether you are an experienced programmer or just getting started.

This path is designed for the developer with no previous programming experience. The intent is to cover the specifics of the C language. The courses in this path focus on the C language as it pertains to programming. It is not designed to include machine-level interfaces written with C. These courses have been designed as sequential in the path but may also be used as stand-alone where a learner already familiar with C can view a specific course as a reference or refresher.
