8 Session # 2 [Introduction to Computers] Computer Language Translators Compiler : A compiler is a computer program (or set of programs) that translates text written in a computer language (the source language) into another computer language (the target language). The original sequence is usually called the source code and the output called object code. The name "compiler" is primarily used for programs that translate source code from a high- level programming language to a lower level language (e.g., assembly language or machine language) Interpreter : An interpreter may be a program that either  executes the source code directly  translates source code into some efficient intermediate representation (code) and immediately executes this  explicitly executes stored precompiled code made by a compiler which is part of the interpreter system Compiler : A compiler is a computer program (or set of programs) that translates text written in a computer language (the source language) into another computer language (the target language).

11 Session # 3 [C Fundamentals] Identifiers Identifiers Identifiers are used to identify some programming elements like, variables, arrays, pointers, functions, and user defined things. The following are the rules to construct valid identifiers. We have to use only alphabets, digits and one special character [ _ ] underscore. The first letter must not be a digit The length of these identifiers may vary from one to several characters. Identifier name should not be same as a C keyword.

14 Session # 3 [C Fundamentals] Variables Variables: While solving a problem we may need to remember some data values temporarily. Such values are placed in the named locations in the memory. These named locations in the memory are called variables. To create a location in the memory, system needs three specifications Variables: While solving a problem we may need to remember some data values temporarily. Such values are placed in the named locations in the memory. These named locations in the memory are called variables. To create a location in the memory, system needs three specifications October 10, 201413 Name of the location. Type of value the location has to hold. Set of operations that are going to be performed against the location.

15 Session # 3 [C Fundamentals] Variables Declarations You create location or locations in the memory with these specifications, we can specify to the system through variable declaration statement. Its syntax is: type variablelist; To declare single variable: type variablename; Note: Variable name should be valid identifier. Remaining two specifications we are specifying through data type.

19 Session # 4 [Operators] Assignment Operator Assignment Operator [ = ] In ‘c’, (=) is the assignment operator, it performs the assignment operation. Assignment statement is constructed by using this operator. Syntax :variable= value/expression; ex: int a = 67; Multiple Assignments to store 5 integers constants temporary we need 5 variables of int type. int a, b, c, d, e; to assign 10 in all these locations a = 10; b = 10; c = 10; d = 10; e = 10; Instead of 5 assignment statements we can manage with single assignment statement as a = b = c = d = e = 10; Assignment Operator [ = ] In ‘c’, (=) is the assignment operator, it performs the assignment operation.

21 Session #4 [Operators] Increment and Decrement Operators Increment and Decrement Operators (++) is an increment operator. it increments its operand value by 1. ( -- ) is a decrement operator. it decrements its operand value by 1. Both operators are unary operators. They expect numeric or char type variable as operand. ex : i + + ; is equivalent to i = i + 1 ; These two operators can precede the operand or can follow the operand + + i prefix form i + + post fix form There is no difference between prefix form and postfix form in short expressions but there is difference in long expression.

24 Session # 5 [Operators] Conditional Operator Conditional Operator [? : ] ternary operator. Syntax expression 1 ? expression 2 : expression 3; The expression 1 is evaluated first and if the outcome of expression 1 is true then the outcome of the complete expression is expression 2 otherwise the outcome of the complete expression is expression 3. Conditional Operator [? : ] ternary operator. Syntax expression 1 ? expression 2 : expression 3; The expression 1 is evaluated first and if the outcome of expression 1 is true then the outcome of the complete expression is expression 2 otherwise the outcome of the complete expression is expression 3.

25 Session # 5 [Operators] Bit wise Operator Bitwise Operators All data represented internally as sequences of bits  Each bit can be either 0 or 1  Sequence of 8 bits forms a byte Bitwise Operators All data represented internally as sequences of bits  Each bit can be either 0 or 1  Sequence of 8 bits forms a byte October 10, 201424 OperatorNameDescription &bitwise AND The bits in the result are set to 1 if the corresponding bits in the two operands are both 1. |bitwise OR The bits in the result are set to 1 if at least one of the corresponding bits in the two operands is 1. ^bitwise exclusive OR The bits in the result are set to 1 if exactly one of the corresponding bits in the two operands is 1. <<left shift Shifts the bits of the first operand left by the number of bits specified by the second operand; fill from right with 0 bits. >>right shift Shifts the bits of the first operand right by the number of bits specified by the second operand; the method of filling from the left is machine dependent. ~One’s complementAll 0 bits are set to 1 and all 1 bits are set to 0.

26 Session # 5 [Operators] Pointer Operators Pointer Operators There are two pointer operators: * and &. & (Address Of): The & is a unary operator that returns the memory address of its operand. Example: int count,*m; m=&count; The first statement will create one variable with name count and pointer with name m of int type. The second statement places address of count variable into the pointer variable m. You can think of & has returning “the address of”. Therefore the preceding statement can be verbalized as “m receives the address of count". *( At address): The second pointer operator is the compliment of &, This is also a unary operator that returns the value located at that address. Example: q=*m; Pointer Operators There are two pointer operators: * and &. & (Address Of): The & is a unary operator that returns the memory address of its operand. Example: int count,*m; m=&count; The first statement will create one variable with name count and pointer with name m of int type. The second statement places address of count variable into the pointer variable m. You can think of & has returning “the address of”. Therefore the preceding statement can be verbalized as “m receives the address of count". *( At address): The second pointer operator is the compliment of &, This is also a unary operator that returns the value located at that address. Example: q=*m; October 10, 201425

27 Session # 5 [Operators] Operator Precedence and Associativity October 10, 201426 Operator Description Associativity () []. -> ++ -- Parentheses (function call) (see Note 1) Brackets (array subscript) Member selection via object name Member selection via pointer Postfix increment/decrement (see Note 2) left-to-right ++ -- + - ! ~ (type) * & sizeof Prefix increment/decrement Unary plus/minus Logical negation/bitwise complement Cast (change type) Dereference Address Determine size in bytes right-to-left * / %Multiplication/division/modulus left-to-right + -Addition/subtraction left-to-right

29 Session # 5 [Operators] Operator Precedence and Associativity October 10, 201428 = += -= *= /= %= &= ^= |= >= Assignment Addition/subtraction assignment Multiplication/division assignment Modulus/bitwise AND assignment Bitwise exclusive/inclusive OR assignment Bitwise shift left/right assignment right-to-left, Comma (separate expressions) left-to-right Note 1: Parentheses are also used to group expressions to force a different order of evaluation; such parenthetical expressions can be nested and are evaluated from inner to outer Note 2: Postfix increment/decrement have high precedence, but the actual increment or decrement of the operand is delayed (to be accomplished sometime before the statement completes execution). So in the statement y = x * z++; the current value of z is used to evaluate the expression (i.e., z++ evaluates to z) and z only incremented after all else is done. Casts You can force an expression to be of a specific type by using a cast. The general form of a cast is (type) expression(Here type is a valid data type.) For example, to cause the expression x/2 to evaluate to type float, write (float) x/2

30 Session # 6 [Console I/O] Input Output Statements Console I/O Introduction Files and streams In C any physical device which is used to do input or output operations is called file. Examples: Keyboard, Screen, Printer, Disk file, etc... Stream A stream is a logical device, which is an abstraction between the physical device and program. Via streams only input output operations takes place. There are two types of streams.  Text Stream  Binary Stream In fact we read from the source, and write to the sink.

34 Session # 7 [Console I/O] Unformatted and Formatted Functions Built in Functions To write data to stdout we have putchar (), puts (),printf() built-in functions. putchar () Syntax: #include int putchar( int ch ); The putchar() function writes ch to STDOUT. The code putchar( ch ); puts() Syntax: #include int puts( char *str ); The function puts() writes str to STDOUT. puts() returns non-negative on success, or EOF on failure Built in Functions To write data to stdout we have putchar (), puts (),printf() built-in functions. putchar () Syntax: #include int putchar( int ch ); The putchar() function writes ch to STDOUT.

35 Session # 7 [Console I/O] Unformatted and Formatted Functions Built in Functions printf () Syntax: #include int printf( const char *format,... ); The printf() function prints output to STDOUT, according to format and other arguments passed to printf(). The string format consists of two types of items - characters that will be printed to the screen, and format commands that define how the other arguments to printf() are displayed. Basically, you specify a format string that has text in it, as well as "special" characters that map to the other arguments of printf(). For example, this code char name[20] = "Bob"; int age = 21; printf( "Hello %s, you are %d years old\n", name, age ); Displays the following output: Hello Bob, you are 21 years old The %s means, "insert the first argument, a string, right here." The %d indicates that the second argument (an integer) should be placed there. There are different %-codes for different variable types, as well as options to limit the length of the variables and whatnot.

40 Session #9 [introduction to C Program] Computer Algorithm and Flow Chart What is a computer algorithm? To make a computer do anything, you have to write a computer program. To write a computer program, you have to tell the computer, step by step, exactly what you want it to do. The computer then "executes" the program, following each step mechanically, to accomplish the end goal. When you are telling the computer what to do, you also get to choose how it's going to do it. That's where computer algorithms come in. The algorithm is the basic technique used to get the job done. Let's follow an example to help get an understanding of the algorithm concept. What is a Flow chart? A flowchart illustrates the steps in a process. By visualizing the process, a flowchart can quickly help identify bottlenecks or inefficiencies where the process can be streamlined or improved. What is a computer algorithm?

45 Session # 10 [Statements] Types of Statements To do this, we can specify to the system by using statement. A statement is a complete instruction categorizes statements into these groups: October 10, 201444

46 Session # 10 [Statements] Control Statements C program control statements can be put into the following categories. October 10, 201445 Control Statements SelectionIterationJump -if, switch for, while, do goto, break, continue, return

47 Session # 10 [Statements] Selection Statements Selection Statements C supports two selection statements: if and switch. In addition, the (? :) operator is an alternative to if in certain circumstances. If The general form of the if statement is If(expression) statement; [else statement;] Here a statement may consist of a single statement, a block of statements, or nothing. The else clause is optional. Selection Statements C supports two selection statements: if and switch. In addition, the (? :) operator is an alternative to if in certain circumstances. If The general form of the if statement is If(expression) statement; [else statement;] Here a statement may consist of a single statement, a block of statements, or nothing. The else clause is optional. October 10, 201446

48 Session # 10 [Statements] Selection Statements If expression evaluates to true (anything other than 0), the statement or block that forms the target of if is executed, otherwise the statement after the target of else is executed, if it exists. The conditional statement controlling if must produce a scalar result. A scalar is integer, character, pointer or floating point type. If expression evaluates to true (anything other than 0), the statement or block that forms the target of if is executed, otherwise the statement after the target of else is executed, if it exists. The conditional statement controlling if must produce a scalar result. A scalar is integer, character, pointer or floating point type. October 10, 201447

49 Session # 11 [Statements] Selection Statements If Ladder If we have several groups of statements and one of the group is to be executed selectively specify that intension by using if Ladder or switch in some cases Syntax if(expression) statement; else if(expression) statement; else if(expression) statement;. else statement; The conditions are evaluated from the top downward. As soon as a true condition is found, the statement associated with it is executed and the rest of ladder is bypassed. If none of the conditions are true, the final else is executed. If the final else is not present, no action takes place if all other conditions are false. If Ladder If we have several groups of statements and one of the group is to be executed selectively specify that intension by using if Ladder or switch in some cases Syntax if(expression) statement; else if(expression) statement; else if(expression) statement;. else statement; The conditions are evaluated from the top downward. As soon as a true condition is found, the statement associated with it is executed and the rest of ladder is bypassed. If none of the conditions are true, the final else is executed. If the final else is not present, no action takes place if all other conditions are false. October 10, 201448

50 Session # 11 [Statements] Selection Statements switch C has a built-in multiple-branch selection statement, called switch, which successively test the value of an expression against list of integer or character constant. When a match is found, the statements associated with that constants are executed. The general form of switch statement is switch(expression) { case constant1: statement sequence [break]; case constant2: statement sequence [break]; case constant3: statement sequence [break];. [default: statement sequence;] } The expression must be evaluated to an integer type thus we can use character or integer values, but floating point expressions, for example, are not allowed. switch C has a built-in multiple-branch selection statement, called switch, which successively test the value of an expression against list of integer or character constant.

October 10, 201449

51 Session # 11 [Statements] Iteration Statements Iteration statements You do these things repeatedly, we can specify to the system by using one of the three repetition statements: while loop The general form is while(condition) statement; Here statement may be an empty statement, a single statement, or a block of statements. The condition may be any expression, and true is any non zero value. The loop iterates while the condition is true. When the condition becomes false, program control passes to the line of the code immediately following the loop.

55 Session # 13 [Functions] Introduction to Functions Functions C’s main structural component is function. It allows compartmentalization of code and data. Functions (sub programs) are used to carry out certain sub tasks. We can divide a long C program into small blocks which can perform a certain task. Function groups a number of program statements into a unit and gives it a name. This unit can be invoked from other parts of a program. A computer program cannot handle all the tasks by it self. Instead its requests other program like entities - called functions in C - to get its tasks done. Generally in C, what are the functions we are writing other than main () function we declare them before the main(), we call them in main() and define them after main(). So function contains declaration and definition. Functions C’s main structural component is function. It allows compartmentalization of code and data.

59 Session # 13 [Functions] Types of Call Statements Call By Value and Call By Address In a computer language there are two ways to pass the arguments to a function; the first one is call by value. This method copies the value of the argument into the formal parameter of the function. In this case, changes made to the parameter have no effect on the argument. ex: void ssit (int, int); Call by Address is second way of passing the arguments to the function. In this method the address of the argument will be copied to the formal parameters. In side the function,the address is used to access the actual argument used in the call.

61 Session # 14 [Arrays and Strings] Introduction 2 Arrays Arrays An array is a series of elements of the same type placed in contiguous memory locations that can be individually referenced by adding an index to a unique identifier. That means that, for example, we can store 5 values of type int in an array without having to declare 5 different variables, each one with a different identifier. Instead of that, using an array we can store 5 different values of the same type[int] with a unique identifier. These similar elements could be all integers or all floats or all characters etc. Usually, the array of characters is called a "string", where as an array of integers or floats are called simply an array. Moreover we can construct one dimensional array as well as multidimensional array.

68 Session # 17 [Pointers] Pointer Arithmetic Pointer Arithmetic There are only two arithmetic operations that can use on pointers, they are 1. Addition 2. Subtraction To understand what occurs in pointer arithmetic, Let p1 be an integer pointer with the address 2000. Also assume int ‘s are 2 bytes long. After the expression : P1++; P1 contains 2002, not 2001. The reason for this is that each time p1 is incremented it will point to the next integer. The same is true for decrements. Each time a pointer is incremented, it points to the memory location of the next element of its base type. Each time it is decremented it points to the memory location of the previous element. Subtracting one pointer from other, in order to find number of objects of base type that separate the two pointers. Note: all other arithmetic operations are prohibited.

69 Session # 17 [Pointers] Arrays with Pointers Arrays with Pointers we are already familiar with arrays(collection of similar data elements referred through common name).Processing array with pointers is much more effective and it is very simple, because generally all data elements of an array are stored in continuous memory locations, so if you know address of starting element of an array, it is very easy to move till the end. Finding address of the first element of an array is simple, as like getting the address of any (by prefixing & to that variable). Here in our arrays each element can name as Arrayname [index]; First element index is 0, so the first element name is Arrayname [0]; so & Arrayname [0];(address of first element) int a[10],*p;( 'a' be the array and 'p' is the pointer). p=&a[0]; we can write p=a; (Because Arrayname itself contains address of first element ) Arrays with Pointers we are already familiar with arrays(collection of similar data elements referred through common name).Processing array with pointers is much more effective and it is very simple, because generally all data elements of an array are stored in continuous memory locations, so if you know address of starting element of an array, it is very easy to move till the end.

73 Session # 18 [Arrays and Strings] Strings Strings Some thing which is placed in between double quotation marks is called string literal.In C a string is treated as one dimensional char array terminated with null character. This means that after the last truly usable char there is a null, hex 00, which is represented in C by '\0'. Example: char str[15],*p; p=str; // similar to p=& str[0],bcz array name itself contains first element address. The above statement declares a char array called str. C provides fifteen consecutive bytes of memory. Only the first fourteen bytes are usable for character storage, because one must be used for the string-terminating null The following is a representation of what would be in RAM, if the string "Hello, world!" is stored in this array.

84 Session # 22 [Derived Types] Structure Processing Accessing structure members Individual members of a structure are accessed through the use of the “.” (dot) Operator. The general form for accessing the member of the structure is objectname.membername For Example, the following statement assigns the pin code 500036 to the pin field of the structure variable addr_info. addr_info.pin=500036; Structure Memory Allocation Structure object occupies the memory as “total no. of bytes occupied by all the members of the structure” Consider Student address structure struct addr { char name[20]; char street[20]; char city[20]; char state[3]; unsigned long int pin; }; The total memory allocated for this structure is 20+20+20+3+4 = 67 bytes Accessing structure members Individual members of a structure are accessed through the use of the “.” (dot) Operator.

86 Session # 23 [Derived Types] Array of structures Array of structures As we know array is collection of similar data types like int, float, char etc. In the same way we can also define array of structures. In that array every element is of structure type. Array of structures can be declared as follows. struct addr { char name[20]; char street[20]; char city[25]; char state[3]; unsigned long pin ; }; struct addr addr_info[5]; Array of structures As we know array is collection of similar data types like int, float, char etc. In the same way we can also define array of structures.

87 Session #23 [Derived Types] Nested structures Structure within structure (Nested Structure) We can take any data type for declaring structure members like int, float, char etc.we can also take objects of one structure as members of another structure. The general form is struct date { int dd; int mm; int yy; }; example Struct person { char name[25]; struct date dob; }emp; We can access the dd as emp.dod.dd Structure within structure (Nested Structure) We can take any data type for declaring structure members like int, float, char etc.we can also take objects of one structure as members of another structure.

89 Session # 23 [Derived Types] Pointer to a STRUCTURE Pointer to a STRUCTURE Pointer is a variable that holds the address of another variable. The variable may be of any type int, float, char etc. in the same way we can define a pointer to a structure. Structure pointers are declared by placing * in front of structure variables name. Example: struct addr { char name[20]; char street[20]; char city[25]; char state[3]; unsigned long pin ; }; struct addr *p; (p is pointer to structure.) To access the member of a structure using pointer to the structure we must use  (arrow) operator As Pointer name  member name For Example, to assign 500036 to pin p->pin=500036 Pointer to a STRUCTURE Pointer is a variable that holds the address of another variable.

90 Session # 24 [Derived Types] Enumerations Enumerations Enumeration is a set of named integer constants. Enumerations are defined much like structures. The keyword enum the start of the enumeration type. The general form for enumerations is Syntax enum tag{ //Enumeration list } var_list; The following four fragments define an enumeration called coin: enum coin { penny, nickel, dime, quarter, half_dollar, dollar }; The enumeration tagname can be used to declare variables of its type the following declare money to be a variable of type coin: enum coin money; if(money==quarter) printf (“Money is a quarter.\n”); The key point to understand about is the enumeration is that each of the symbols stands for an integer value. Each symbol is given a value one greater than the symbol that precedes it. The value of the first enumeration symbol is zero. Therefore, printf (“%d %d “,penny, dime); [ o/p : 0 2] Enumerations Enumeration is a set of named integer constants. Enumerations are defined much like structures.

91 Session # 24 [Derived Types] Unions Unions A union is a collection of variables of different types, just like a structure. However, with unions, you can only store information in one field at any one time. Once a new value is assigned to a field, the existing data is wiped over with the new data. The size of a union is equal to the size of it's largest data member. why because only one member can be used at a time Syntax to declare a union: Unions A union is a collection of variables of different types, just like a structure.

96 Session #26 [File I/O] Introduction to File I/O C File I/O and Binary File I/O When accessing files through C, the first necessity is to have a way to access the files. For C File I/O you need to use a FILE pointer, which will let the program keep track of the file being accessed. (You can think of it as the memory address of the file or the location of the file). example: FILE *fp; To open a file you need to use the fopen function, which returns a FILE pointer. Once you've opened a file, you can use the FILE pointer to let the compiler perform input and output functions on the file.

97 Session #26 [File I/O] File Process Example of using fopen: FILE *fp;fp=fopen("c:\\test.txt", "r"); [open test.txt for reading in text mode] To close a function you can use the function int fclose(FILE *a_file); [returns zero if the file is closed successfully ] Example of fclose : fclose(fp); you can use fprintf and fscanf,to working with text I/O and they are similar to their friends printf and scanf except that you must pass the FILE pointer as first argument. Example: FILE *fp; fp=fopen("c:\\test.txt", "w"); fprintf(fp, "Testing...\n"); fgetc(): [read a single character from a file] int fgetc (FILE *fp); fputc(): [write a character at a time into a file ] int fputc( int c, FILE *fp ); Example of using fopen: FILE *fp;fp=fopen("c:\\test.txt", "r"); [open test.txt for reading in text mode] To close a function you can use the function int fclose(FILE *a_file); [returns zero if the file is closed successfully ] Example of fclose : fclose(fp); you can use fprintf and fscanf,to working with text I/O and they are similar to their friends printf and scanf except that you must pass the FILE pointer as first argument.

98 Session #26 [File I/O] Binary Files Binary I/O [ fread(),fwrite() ] These are dealing with blocks of memories - usually arrays. Because they accept pointers, you can also use these functions with other data structures; you can even write structs to a file or a read struct into memory. Declarations : size_t fread(void *ptr, size_t size_of_elements, size_t number_of_elements, FILE *a_file); size_t fwrite(const void *ptr, size_t size_of_elements, size_t number_of_elements, FILE *a_file); Example: FILE *fp; fp=fopen("c:\\test.bin", "wb"); char x[10]="ABCDEFGHIJ"; fwrite(x, sizeof(x[0]), sizeof(x)/sizeof(x[0]), fp); Binary I/O [ fread(),fwrite() ] These are dealing with blocks of memories - usually arrays.
