Introduction to C Programming 2e is designed to serve as a textbook for B Tech and MCA students as well as those pursuing any basic course on C programming. The book focuses on the fundamentals of C programming to enable students write effective programs. Beginning with an introduction to programming in general, the text goes on to delve into a complete analysis of the various constructs of C such as decision control and looping statements, functions, arrays, strings, pointers, structures and unions, file management, and pre-processor directives. It also presents a separate chapter on linked lists detailing the various kinds of linked lists and how they are used to allocate memory dynamically. The second edition also features a new section on C programming with Unix, Linux, and Ubuntu as well as a detailed discussion on algorithms and how they act as a blueprint for writing effective C programs. A strong pedagogical approach is followed throughout the book, which includes plenty of examples, figures, programming tips, keywords, and end-chapter exercises. These features, augmented further in this new edition, will help students master the art of writing C programs.  About the Author Reema Thareja is Assistant Professor at Department of Computer Science, Shyama Prasad Mukherjee College for Women, University of Delhi.
