1.1 What is C?

 

An Introduction to C

C is a programming language, or a way to communicate with technology. Just like other languages you may have heard of before such as Java or Python, C is basically how you tell a computer to do something. It acts as a middle man, converting language that you and me speak to 1s and 0s that computers can understand. But what makes it different from the other languages?
 
The main difference between these languages is that they all have different types of syntax (the way you structure statements). More specifically, C is a procedural computer programming language, used for general structured programming, and it’s platform independent, which means that if you code something once, you can easily access it on a variety of machines.
