Getting started with C – part 3

Getting started with C – part 3

Could you specify what exactly you need in “Getting Started with C – Part 3”?

Are you looking for:
 Advanced concepts in C? (e.g., pointers, memory allocation)
 Practical coding exercises?
 File handling, data structures, or algorithms?
 Debugging techniques in C?

Let me know your focus, and I’ll provide the best content!

Great! Let’s continue with Getting Started with C – Part 3. If you’re following along from Part 1 and Part 2, you likely already covered:

• Part 1: Introduction, setting up a compiler, basic syntax, main(), printf()

• Part 2: Variables, data types, operators, and basic input/output with scanf()

Part 3: Control Flow in C

In this part, you’ll learn how to control the flow of execution in a C program using:

1. Conditional Statements

2. Loops

3. switch Statement

1. Conditional Statements

if, else if, and else

Use comparison operators like ==, !=, <, >, <=, >= to form conditions.

2. Loops

while Loop

for Loop

do...while Loop

3. switch Statement

Used when you have multiple values to check for a single variable:

Quick Tips

• Always break in switch cases unless you want fall-through behavior.

• Use else if chains for multiple condition checks.

• Prefer for loops when the number of iterations is known.

Practice

Try writing a C program that:

• Takes an integer input from the user

• Prints whether it’s even or odd

• Loops until the user inputs 0

Would you like a sample solution or challenge for that?

Let me know if you’d like to move to functions, arrays, or pointers in Part 4!
