Fundamentals of Computing and Programming in C is designed to serve as a textbook for students of engineering and computer science. "The book begins with an introduction to computer basics, explains number systems, computer software, the Internet and its applications, and algorithms, and then moves on to a detailed coverage of programming in C. Concepts such as compilers, linkers, loaders, data types, functions, arrays, strings, pointers, structures and unions, and file systems have been explained exhaustively. Finally, preprocessing and program development are discussed, highlighting the advantages of the powerful C preprocessor. Interspersed with numerous solved examples based on daily life, the theory is well supported by plenty of review questions and programming exercises at the end of each chapter. Written in a clear and lucid style, the book encourages self-study and motivates the student towards independent problem solving." Salient  Features 1. Provides programming case studies 2.
