C Programming Language Tutorial

C language is the high level programming language developed by Dennis Richie in 1972 at Bell Telephone laboratory.
C is called Middle level language because, it has features of both low level computer programming language and high level computer programming language.
C is called Mother Language because, the most popular and powerful high level languages used today are created from C and follow the syntax of C Programming language, like C++, Java, C# , PHP.
C is case sensitive which means C differs low case characters from upper case letters, like in c int is different from Int or INT. In C Language most of the functions, keywords and other builtin programming unit are written in small case letters while some of the builtin constants in C are written in capital letters.
Initially when C was developed, it was used for making system software like operating system disk drivers, utility programs and translators, but later on C was used for different purposes.
Now a days C is a general purpose programming language.
If you want to learn a Programming, start learning programming with C is better, this is because all the popular high level languages follow the syntax of C, with additional components. So if you learn C Programming then switch to an other programming, you will see most of the elements in that language of C, just you focus on learning additional things. If you start from any other Programming language like C# or Java, you will have difficulties because you will learn the programming language syntax and other features of that language in parallel which is very hard to cover.
