IT202 C Programming

Assessment Rubric:

• • Test (30%)

  • Project (70%)

(There is NO turnitin requirement for this unit)

Project Submission Checklist:

• • Documentation

  • Powerpoint slides

  • Source file

  • Data file used in your project

You are free to use any editor you like. There is no restriction of the editor.

If you don't like the in-built Eclipse editor. You may use Notepad++ to help you export/import your program.

I have some of the study guide codes (the corrected version). You can get it from me in class.

I have a incomplete c program sample from the textbook. You can get it from me directly.

Eclipse C Compiler - Known Issue

- clrscr() function produce a compile error of "undefined reference to `clrscr'"

Solution: #include <stdlib.h> and replace the clrscr(); with system("cls"); This should work for Windows.

- void main(void) produce an error "warning: return type of 'main' is not 'int'"

Solution: include the stdlib, use int main(void) and at the end return EXIT_SUCCESS;

Known Issue

-Eclipse may NOT work on non-English Windows OS machine.

-Eclipse produce a insufficient privilege to write. Save your work and restart Eclipse.

-Mouse hang - with the different architecture. Pls do save often.

Why C language?

C language has high performance and there a quite a number of kernel hackers.

For the C data type and range

Chapter 3

In a switch-case, the case clause ends with a :

Chapter 6

Array is a data structure much like a list. It can store a number of data of the same data-type.

Chapter 7

//String to integer conversion program

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)

{

char x[10] = "23";

int result = atoi(x);

printf("integer value of the string is %d\n", result);

}
