Description of  An Introduction to the C Programming Language and Software Design: Software Design , Generic Programming , Data Structures , Advanced Algorithms and Data Structures ....... For Beginners

This textbook began as a collection of lecture notes for the first year in software engineering The course lasted over a semester, lasting 13 weeks, with two lectures per week. Intention From this text to cover topics about C programming language and design introductory programs in C The sequence is in the form of a 20 lecture course, with the material in chapters 2, 7, 8, 11, and 13 serving it well Two lectures each. Cross-reference and indexing are adequately provided to make the text serviceable Reference, but more complete work is recommended. In particular, for the practicing programmer, The best tutorial and reference guide available is Kernighan and Ritchie [KR88] and the best in depth Reference is Harbison and Steele [HS95, HS02]. The influence of these two works on this text is Easily clear all the time. What sets this book apart from most introductory C programming texts is its strong focus in software design. Like other scripts, it presents the basic language syntax and semantics, but it also It addresses aspects of program configuration, such as function interfaces, file modularity, and object coding. It also shows how to design for errors Using confirm() and exit() . Chapter 6 introduces the practical fundamentals of software design - from requirements and specifications, to top-down and bottom-up design, to writing Actual code. Chapter 14 explains how to write generic programs (that is, code designed to work with a file a variety of different data types). Another uncommon aspect of introductory C texts is the emphasis on unary operations. The course for which this textbook was originally written was a prerequisite for embedded systems Of course, and therefore requires an introduction to the unimodal manipulations suitable for embedded systems Programming. Chapter 12 provides a comprehensive discussion of bit-level programming techniques. This textbook is a work in progress and will be refined and possibly expanded in the future.
