A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE WITH PRACTICAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR LEARNING DATA
STRUCTURES, LOW-LEVEL PROGRAMMING, HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING,
NETWORKING AND IOT TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND THE LATEST STANDARDS IN C
PROGRAMMING SUCH AS C11 AND C18
KEY FEATURES
* Tackle various challenges in C programming by making the most of
its latest features
* Understand the workings of arrays, strings, functions, pointers,
advanced data structures, and algorithms
* Become well-versed with process synchronization during
multitasking and server-client process communication
BOOK DESCRIPTION
Used in everything from microcontrollers to operating systems, C is a
popular programming language among developers because of its
flexibility and versatility. This book helps you get hands-on with
various tasks, covering the fundamental as well as complex C
programming concepts that are essential for making real-life
applications.
You’ll start with recipes for arrays, strings, user-defined
functions, and pre-processing directives. Once you’re familiar with
the basic features, you’ll gradually move on to learning pointers,
file handling, concurrency, networking, and inter-process
communication (IPC). The book then illustrates how to carry out
searching and arrange data using different sorting techniques, before
demonstrating the implementation of data structures such as stacks and
queues. Later, you’ll learn interesting programming features such as
using graphics for drawing and animation, and the application of
general-purpose utilities. Finally, the book will take you through
advanced concepts such as low-level programming, embedded software,
IoT, and security in coding, as well as techniques for improving code
performance.
By the end of this book, you'll have a clear understanding of C
programming, and have the skills you need to develop robust apps.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
* Discover how to use arrays, functions, and strings to make large
applications
