UNIT I Overview of C: History of C-Importance of C-Basic structure of C-Programm

ing style-Contends, Variables and Data types-declaration of variables, storage c

lass- defining symbolic constants- declaring a variable as constant, volatile-ov
erflow and underflow of data. Operator and expressions: arithmetic, relational,
logical, assignment operators-increment and decrement operators, conditional ope
rators, bitwise operators, special operators- arithmetic expression- evaluation
of expressions- precedence of arithmetic operators
type conversions in expressio
n operator precedence and associativity
mathematical functions
managing I/O Opera
tions: reading and writing a character formatted input, output. UNIT II Decision
making and branching: if statement, if else statement-nesting of if .else statemen
t- Else if ladder-Switch statement- the?: Operator- goto statement.The While sta
tement do statement
The for statement jumps in loops. UNIT III Arrays: One dimens
