What is C language | C language uses | Topics of C language

In this blog I will tell you the most common uses of C language Programming and the Topics that I will cover in my Tutorial of C Language What are the uses of c language ? C language is used to code a wide variety of advance systems that are very fast executed and works efficiently . C was developed for the development of unix operating system (OS). Major parts of windows , linux , and other operating systems are written using C language. C is widely used to write device driver programs such as driver programs for hardwares like tablets, printers,routers , keyboard and mouses etc . C language is used to program embedded system where requirement of execution speed is very faster and also it has to be executed in a limited memory. These type of programs are written is C language to archive the faster execution in limited memory. the devices for which these type of programs are written can be Microwave ovens, Cameras, smart washing machines , refrigrators etc. Apart from that C language i...

What Are Variables in C language | Constants and Keywords in language

Variables are the containers in C language which are used to store data in the program. Variables are the small memory blocks which holds some values in it. Variables in c language :       What are variables in C language ?     In C language, A variable is just like a container that contains values of different data           types. A variable is an entity whose value can be change.      This means that to store any value we use variables in C language.
