About Course
Coding Bootcamps school hands-on self-paced C programming course provides a comprehensive introduction to the ANSI C language, emphasizing portability and structured design. Students are introduced to all major language elements including fundamental data types, flow and control. Thorough treatment is given to the topics of string and character manipulation, dynamic memory allocation, standard I/O, macro definition, and the C runtime library.
The course explains the use of aggregate structures, unions, and pointers early on so the students can practice extensively in the hands-on labs.
