SkillsFuture Course - C Programming Essential

Widely used for both systems and application development, C is a powerful language at the heart of many more modern languages, like JavaScript and Objective-C. In this course, the trainer will explain data types, strings, and variables to simple functions in C. He'll show how these basic elements fit together in control structures like loops and if-else statements—where the real logic behind your code comes into play. Plus, learn how C organizes information into arrays and how you can manage memory resources with pointers.
