Why to use C ?

C was originally used for the development work of the system, including programs that are part of the operating system. C adoped as the system language, because it produces code that runs as fast as written in assembly code. Examples of the use of C are:
  • Operating Systems
  • Language Compilers
  • Assemblers
  • Text Editors
  • Print Spoolers
  • Network Drivers
  • Modern Programs
  • Data Bases
  • Language Interpreters
  • Utilities 

C Program File

All the C programs are written into text files with extension ".c" for example prog.c. You can use "vi" editor to write your C program into a file.
This tutorial assumes that you know how to edit a text file and how to write programming instructions inside a program file.
