Learning to Program in C (Part 01)

[@TheQuatum]

This single tutorial covered 3 entire chapters of my C programming book in 11 min. This is definitely not a basic tutorial

[@dopier12]

Thank you sir. Adding you to my favorites. I think I'm going to watch all your videos in C. Hope you have C++ as well. I remember nothing from my introduction to C class almost two years ago...so you might prove to be a life saver line for me.

I learned C with a awesome book The C programming Language by K&R. The book is dated and the examples have bugs in them but it's only two hundred pages, and it gets you up to speed quick, the first chapter you will know how to do if's, whiles, for's and trust me you'll have a great understanding of the language. If you are stressed out about the information not "sticking" the book will make it stick. This is for everyone who wants to learn the best way; the hard way. Also, the world has progressed passed C, you won't get a job programming it instead you'll get the fundamentals you need to know to learn OOP languages, so syntax, specific nit-picks of functions in the book don't really matter. You probably should be using it to get a marketable language. Also, my suggestion is to use linux, use GCC as a compiler and the linux terminal to compile and run. I've always had trouble keeping the window up with EOF references and other problems that are prone to IDE's. Nothing is more annoying then having an error because of the software of the IDE or the OS. If you want a hassle free way to code, just type the commands, it's not hard because the terminal by pressing up will copy the code automatically.

Your are right The best way to learn is the hard way!

WolvesFanVideos really depends on what varant of Visual Studio you have. Visual Studio Code = text editor Visual Studio 20XX (style) = IDE

personally i learned q basic first, then visual basic, then i moved on to C. in my opinion this is a very good way to start.

make sure to enable hardware virtualization with windows through the bios, virtualbox wouldn't run Ubuntu until I did that.

[@_JS96]

A better/more user-friendly terminal editor is nano. There's always been the nano side and the vi side but nano is my preference. Ex. touch hello.c (touch is the "create this document" command) nano hello.c (edits the document named "hello.c" in your current working directory) You don't have to do the touch command because nano will create the document if it does not exist but it's always good to know more commands. When done editing press Ctrl+X and save document to name.

[@Burtsandalman]

Jonah St-François Nano is much easier to use, but Vim is much better IMO. The controls take longer to learn in Vim, but it's all around better, That being said, Nano isn't bad.

[@_JS96]

Grimmwood It's a personal preference more than anything at this point. I'm much more comfortable in nano than I have/will ever be in Vi so nano is a better tool for me.

6:30 *Why* did we say the hello world main method should return an integer? You should explain things more in depth.

[@andibensisva2155]

this function only print the string into output (monitor) and not returning any value (to catch). in other word it returns zero, zero is an integer. thats why...

So my question is, whats this white screen he calls Vi? I know it is Unix based, where do I get it or how do I get to the same screen he is on? Somewhat confusing just starting out...

do i need other knowledge to learn c? or what Kind of knowledge would help? i never had computing lessons and i feel like im thrown into cold water.

I have no clue what's going on. Can someone direct me to a more basic video. I want to get into programming but don't know where to start. All I know about programming is that somebody somewhere types some codes and makes the internet work.

[@mightyworker]

So I have taken an intro to Java class and now in the middle of the next level up as well as a class that deals with C. You would probably do better getting your feet wet in Java or Python- both higher-level languages that are more intuitive than C which is, like he said, dealing with the hardware more directly. If you look at the free online courses that MIT provides, they show you how to get Python running on your personal computer, for example. I also know khanacademy does some work with python as well, and it would be better to learn from him than right on the MIT website, because they go pretty fast.

[@jet-it9cr]

I would recommend to look up some videos about BASIC

[@dangputerz]

^^ horrible advice. python maybe.

So many people saying "OMG, I JUST DON'T GET IT!" That's because computer and web programming just isn't for everybody. Some people need to come to terms with that and move on to other things.

[@vaitelias]

What's the best compiler to use?

[@yonghongniu6907]

I think vim is best !

[@MrJmvprivateer]

depends on what OS you are running. In Windows look up Visual Studios Express Editions. In Mac I think XCode (but clang is available as well because of the BSD userland), and on Linux GCC.

[@MrJmvprivateer]

Yonghong Niu Vim is good, but it is technically just a text editor.

[@peterkristo4448]

Hey Jonathan, Thanks for the tutorial, it's great, I've always wanted to do this stuff. However, being a 12 year old, it's pretty darn hard learning C. I've been learning Flash Actionscript 2.0, and I'm getting good! But as C is a bit too hard, should I just stick with the basics like Flash Actionscript 2.0? Great tutorial, Peter Kristo

[@RobertBedfordVEVO]

your 12. Not to young to start. Just take it slow and do basics bit by bit. By the time your 16 you'll be a master. I will someone told me what i'm telling you now when i was your age

[@vibrantloki3999]

If you aren't able to afford the necessary software to learn how to code in a specific language. Learn a different language. C#, C++, Python, JavaScript, etc. all use free software to compile code in the respective language. As for tutorials, codeacademy, khanacademy, coursera, etc. are all great resources.
