What is C Programming?
C is a general-purpose, procedural programming language developed by Dennis Ritchie in 1972 at Bell Labs. It is known for its efficiency, portability, and power. Many modern languages like C++, Java, Python, and JavaScript have their roots in C.
Why Learn C?
1. Foundation of Modern Programming – Helps in understanding memory management and low-level programming.
2. Used in System Programming – Operating Systems like Windows, Linux, and Unix are written in C.
3. Embedded Systems & IoT – C is widely used in microcontrollers and embedded applications.
4. Game Development & High-Performance Applications – Many game engines and databases like MySQL are built in C.
5. Best for Coding Interviews & Competitive Programming – Many companies prefer C for technical rounds.
