Module 1
Introduction to C Programming
Overview of C: History, importance, and applications.
Setting up the environment: Installing a compiler (GCC) and IDE (Code::Blocks, Dev-C++).
Understanding the basic structure of a C program: main(), comments, and simple output with printf().
Module 2
Variables, Data Types, and Operators
Understanding data types: int, float, char, double, and void.
Declaring and initializing variables.
Operators in C: Arithmetic, relational, logical, bitwise, and assignment operators.
Module 3
Control Flow and Loops
Decision-making statements: if, else, switch.
Looping structures: for, while, and do-while loops.
Nested loops and conditional statements for complex logic.
Module 4
Functions and Recursion
Functions: Defining, declaring, and calling functions.
Passing parameters to functions: By value and by reference.
Recursion in C: Understanding base case and recursive calls with examples.
Module 5
Arrays, Pointers, and Memory Management
Arrays: Declaring, initializing, and accessing array elements.
Introduction to pointers: Understanding memory addresses and pointer manipulation.
Dynamic memory management: Using malloc(), calloc(), and free().
Module 6
Structures, File Handling, and Projects
Structures: Defining and using structures for storing data.
File handling: Reading and writing data to files (fopen(), fclose(), fprintf(), fscanf()).
Final Project: Implementing a simple C application (e.g., student database, basic calculator).
