Mode of Conduct
• BYOD(Bring your own device)
• Note: Laptops are mandatory for program

implementation.

Daily routine
Let us look around our daily routine…

• Let us see where all we do programming
everyday
• Simple things we do to start the day
This too has a set procedure. One

follows particular steps to accomplish
the task.
So there is ONE program you know which is there in you…

Daily routine
• There is a set procedure Start
Pick Brush
• Each step is defined Rinse

Brush
Apply
• The occurrence is ordered Paste
Brush
• Jump is NOT permitted Rinse

Mouth
Rinse
• A step cannot be skipped Brush
Stop

Daily routine
• Let us explore more as the day goes by…
Going for a morning 0900 AM Class Going for a movie at 0900 AM
It is all about WHICH program is loaded WHEN

Daily routine
• The flow changes

Start
Go!!!
Where
Class To Movie
Go?
Stop Stop
So what does this mean?
• Take ANY activity of the day…

• It will have a set procedure
• It has to be done in a designate way
• If not done the specified way will yield
wrong results
• Success in doing it depends on how
closer one is to the prescribed method
• This clearly shows that everything has a

What next?
• If there is logic in anything and

everything
• There has to be ways to represent logic
• There has to be modes to modify and
re-represent logic
• There should be methodology to
implement and re-design logic
• And for all this…
What next?
• There has to be logic machine

to assimilate, understand,
solve, store, retrieve and
represent logic
• There has to be a
LANGUAGE to communicate
with the logic machine
Otherwise….
Diving deeper…

WHY C???????????????
➢If we have number of powerful

programming languages available
with us then why c??????

The hitch...............
Some burning questions in mind......
• C is a very old language. Why are we still studying
this language??????
• Now, we have very powerful languages with us
then, why c??
• There is no scope of this language in industry

Lets take you close to the reality
• All of us use Computers or Laptops for different
purposes.
• Could you tell me which system software is most
required to get our system in working mode??????

Let’s Explore more
• Could you tell me which programming language is
used in writing all these operating system??????
• Latest version of Microsoft Windows i.e.

Windows10 is still being written in C Language

Contd.....
• Device drivers are also written in C language.
• All these modern programming languages are
influenced by C language
• Compilers for Python and PHP language are also

written in C language

Contd.....
• Embedded systems are also developed with the
help of C language

Contd.....
•Git
•Microsoft Excel
•Oracle Database
•MySql
•Linux
•Unix
•Android
•Google
MNCs
Top rated Companies which has a dearth of C programmers

Here are the Answers of Questions
• C is very a old language still, why do we study C
language??
• Now, we have very powerful languages

with us then why c??
• There is no scope of this language in industry

History of C
• Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson were working
on developing a new operating system i.e UNIX
• But the programming language they
were using was not providing them
the portability feature
• So Dennis Ritchie developed new
language i.e C

History continued...

Why “C” name was given???
• Many of C’s principles and ideas were derived from the
earlier language B. (Ken Thompson was the developer of
B Language.)
• BCPL and CPL are the earlier ancestors of B Language
• CPL is Combined Programming Language. In 1967, BCPL
Language ( Basic CPL ) was created as a scaled down
version of CPL
• As many of the features were derived from “B”
Language thats why it was named as “C”.
• After 7-8 years C++ came into existence which was first
example of object oriented programming .
Evolution of C...

Language Developers

Features of C Language
• Low Level Language Support
• Program Portability
• Powerful and Feature rich
• High Level Features
• Modular Programming

It can be defined in following ways:
It can be defined by the following ways:
• Mother language
• System programming language
• Procedure-oriented programming language
• Structured programming language
• Mid-level programming language

Next Class: Program structure of C program.
Various programming tools like flow chart and
algorithms.

Algorithm
• Algorithm is defined as “ the finite set of
steps, which provide a chain of action for
solving a problem”
• It is step by step solution to given problem.
• Well organized, pre-arranged and defined
textual computational module

Characteristics of good Algorithm
1. Correctness - terminates on ALL inputs (even invalid inputs!) and
outputs the correct answer.
2. Simplicity - each step of the algorithm performs one logical step in
solving the problem.
3. Precision - each step of the algorithm is unambiguous in meaning.
4. Comprehensibility - the algorithm is easy to read and understand.
5. Abstraction - presents the solution steps precisely and concisely
without referring to low-level (program code) details.
6. Efficient - Gives results rapidly based on the problem size; does
not waste any space or time.
7. Easy to Implement - relatively easy to translate into a
programming language.

Steps to create an Algorithm
1. Identify the Inputs
• What data do I need?
• How will I get the data?
• In what format will the data be?
2. Identify the Outputs

• What outputs do I need to return to the user?
• What format should the outputs take?

Steps to create an Algorithm
3. Identify the Processes
• How can I manipulate data to produce
meaningful results?
• Data vs. Information
4. Break the Solution to steps

By breaking the solution to the steps we can
easily understand the logic of program

Example of Algorithm
To establish a telephone communication
• Step 1: Dial a phone number
• Step 2: Phone rings at the called party
• Step 3: Caller waits for the response
• Step 4: Called party picks up the phone
• Step 5: Conversation begins between them
• Step 6: After the conversation, both disconnect
the call

Algorithm: Add 2 Numbers
Problem: To add two numbers.
• Step1. Start.
• Step2. Take the two numbers.
• Step3. Add them.
• Step4. Print the result.
• Step5. Stop.

Flow Chart
• Flow Chart is pictorial representation of an
algorithm.
• Whatever we have done in algorithm we can
represent it in picture.
• It is easy to understand.
• Shows the flow of the instruction

Flow Chart Symbols

Flow Chart: Add 2 Numbers
START
TAKE TWO
NUMBERS A and B
FIND SUM=A+B
PRINT SUM
STOP
Flow Chart: Greater than two Numbers

Pseudocode
• pseudocode statements that appear to have
been written in a computer programming
language but do not necessarily follow any
syntax rules of any specific language.
• The purpose of using pseudocode is that it is
easier for people to understand than
conventional programming language code,
and that it is an efficient and environment-
independent description of the key principles
of an algorithm.
Example of Pseudocode
• start
input myNumber
set myAnswer = myNumber * 2
output myAnswer
Stop

MCQ
Q1 The symbol denotes _______
a) I/O
b) Flow
c) Terminal
d) Decision

MCQ
Q2 In computer science, algorithm refers to a
pictorial representation of a flowchart.
a) True
b) False

Explanation
• A simple C program consists of
– Comments (optional)
• //
• /*….*/
– Including header files
• #include<header file name>
– Functions
• main function as special function
• Other user defined functions (optional)
• Let’s discuss these in detail..
Comments
• Two forward slashes ‘ // ’ (double forward

slashes), are used to write single line comment
• The next combination ‘ /*……..*/ ’ (forward slash
with asterisk) is used for commenting multiple
lines
• These comments are not being executed by
compiler
• * comment can appear anywhere in a program
where a white space can appear

Header files
• The next two lines are command for including
header files
• These two lines must be included in every C

program
– stdio.h: standard input output header file for
functions printf(),scanf(),... and so on
– conio.h: console input output header file for
functions getch()…. and so on
• Here ‘ # ‘ is called preprocessor directive
Header files
C code example
Program //Sample program

#include<stdio.h> //header file for printf()
#include<conio.h> //header file for getch()
int main()
{
//stdio.h is providing printf() function
printf(“Car is under process”);
//conio.h is providing getch() function
getch();
}
Output:
Car is under process

Data Type
cse101@lpu.co.in
OUTLINE
• In this lecture we will cover
– Character set
– Identifiers
– Keyword
– Data types

Language: its influence in our life
• Let us look to what we are doing since our
childhood, how did we learnt ENGLISH- A recap
A B C D …… X Y Z Characters
RAT BAT CAT COW Words
COW EAT GRASS Statements
ESSAY ON COW Programs

Introduction to C
• Like every language C programming language
requires basic building blocks to communicate
with the computer. Characters
• So we require
– Character set Words
– Words(keywords and identifiers)
– Statement (instructions) Statements
– Program
Programs
Character Set
• The character set of C represents alphabet, digit or
any symbol used to represent information.
Types Character Set
Uppercase Alphabets A, B, C, … Y, Z
Lowercase Alphabets a, b, c, … y, z
Digits 0, 1, 2, 3, … 9
~‘!@#%^&*()_-+=|\{} []
Special Symbols
:;"'<>,.?/
White spaces Single space, tab, new line.
Token
• Every single element in a C Program is Token

Token
• Smallest unit in a program/statement.
• It makes the compiler understand what is written in the
program.
• Example: main, printf , name,), etc.
• Tokens are broadly classified as:
– Identifiers
– Keywords
– Constants
– Variables
– Strings
– Operators
– Special character

Identifiers
• So to identify things we have some name
given to them .
• Identifiers are the fundamental building blocks
of a program
• Used to give names to variables, functions,
constant, and user defined data.
• They are user-defined names and consist of a
sequence of letters and digits

Rules for naming an Identifier
1. An identifier name is any combination of 1 to 31
alphabets, digits or underscores.
2. The first character in the identifier name must be an

alphabet or underscore.
3. No blanks or special symbol other than an underscore

can be used in an identifier name.
4. Keywords are not allowed to be used as identifiers.

Some Identifiers
Tool_spanner;
both are different
tool_spanner;
FORMULA1;
engine_1;
Wrong identifiers name

1_engine;
break;
@car-roof;
C Keywords
• Keywords are the reserved words whose
meaning has already been explained to the C
compiler.
• We cannot use these keywords as variables.
• Each keyword is meant to perform a specific
function in a C program.
• There are 32 keywords in C language.
• All keywords are written in lowercase only
Eg: The name of person can never be home, eat,

sleep, run, etc because these words have some
predefined meaning to perform some task.

List of C Keywords
auto double int struct
break else long switch
case enum register typedef
char extern return union
const float short unsigned
continue for signed void
default goto sizeof volatile
do if static while

Data Types
• Data type means the type of value a variable
will have.
• It also defines memory space for a particular
variable in computer.
• The type of value of variable can be alphabets
or numbers.
• The numbers can be further divided as the
integer or rational number.

• Lets see a mathematics problem:

My-Car
1. If the radius of car wheel is 15inch then what will the
distance traveled after one rotation of that wheel?
Sol: Given-
radius = 15 15 Integer( int in C )
dist_travelled = ?
So, Circumference of circle = 2 * pi * r
dist_travelled = 2 * 3.14 * radius 3.14 Real (float in C)
dist_travelled = 6.28 * 15
dist_travelled = 94.2 Ans. 94.2 Real (float in C)

Classification of Data Types
• In C data type is broadly classified as:
– Basic data types
– Derived data types
– User defined data types

Derived Data
Type
• Pointers
• Functions
• Array
Basic Data Type User Defined
• Integer Data Type
• Character • Structure
• Float • Union
• Double • Enumeration

digits of precision

Integer
• It is used to store positive
and negative counting numbers, as well as
zero.
{...,-2,-1,0,1,2,...}
• The numbers written in green box of My-Car

problem are the integers.
15 84 34 97

• The type modifiers for the integer data type
are: signed, unsigned, short, long .
• Signed types represent positive and negative
numbers.
• Unsigned represent zero and positive numbers
only.
• Long and short represent the range of integer
number

Short Integer Long Integer
• Occupies 2 bytes in • Occupies 4 bytes in
memory. memory.

Float
• Floating point numbers are real numbers that,
unlike integers, may contain fractional parts of
numbers, like 1.446, -112.972, 3.267e+27.
• It is used to store real numbers with single
precision i.e. a precision of 6 digits after
decimal point.

• Format specifier is %f.

• It occupies 1 byte of memory.
• Format specifier is %c.
• The range is 0 to 255 for unsigned char.
• The range is -127 to 127 for signed char.
• Each char type has an equivalent integer
interpretation, ASCII value, so that a char is
really a special kind of short integer.
char choice=‘y’;

Format Specifier
• Specifies the format according to which the value
will be printed on screen in C.
Example:
• %d : signed integer
• %ld: long integer
• %u : unsigned integer
• %c : single character

Expressions
Operators
cse101@lpu.co.in
Tokens
• We have seen that Tokens are broadly classified as:
– Identifiers
– Keywords
– Constants
– Variables
– Strings
– Operators
– Special character

Constants
• The entity which do not change throughout
the execution are called constants.
• Types of constants:
– Integer constant
– Character constant
– Floating point constants
– String constants
Name of person remains same through out
the life, example: Amit, Shubnam, etc.

• Character constants
– Constants enclosed in single quotes(‘ ’).
– It can be any letter from character set.
Example : ‘\n’, ‘\t’ or ‘a’
• String Constants
– Set of zero or more characters enclosed in double
quotes (eg: “ ” )
– It is represented as sequence of characters within
double quotes.
Example : “This is C programming”

• Integer Constants
– When the constant contains only digits without
any decimal part
Example : 5;
-987;
• Floating Constant
– Constants that contains number with decimal
points
Example : 3.14;
309.89

My-Car
In My-Car problem the constant value is 3.14
which is the value of pi and always same.
• pi = 3.14
Therefore:
dist_travelled = 2 * pi * radius.
 pi is a floating point constant.

Variables
• Variable is an entity which may change.
• Variable is used to hold result and reserve
memory for the data.
datatype variable_name;
The naming of variable is done by following
the same rules of identifier naming.
Eg. What is your hobby?

The answer could be reading, dancing, drawing, etc.
So the answer to such questions may change during the life
time of the person

Rules for naming a Variable
1. An variable name is any combination of 1 to 31
alphabets, digits or underscores.
2. The first character in the variable name must be an

alphabet or underscore.
3. No blanks or special symbol other than an underscore

can be used in an variable name.
4. Keywords are not allowed to be used as variables.

Variables
In My-Car problem the variable was
• radius and dist_travelled
It can also be named as
• radius_wheel or r1 or
car_wheel_radius
• Distance or d1 or
dist_by_1rotation

Variables
Let us build some variables:
For speed of car we need to know
• Distance traveled
• Time taken to travel the distance
Variables to be declared as
• Speed, s1, speed_of_car
• Distance, d1, dist
• Time, t1, time_of_travel

Variable Initialization
• Assigning some value to the variable at
time of creation of variable is known as
variable initialization.
datatype variable_name = value;
Example: int radius= 15;

float pi = 3.14;
char grade = ‘A’;

Expressions
• Expressions are the statements or the instruction
given to computer to perform some operation.
• Every expression results in some value that can
be stored in a variable.
• Following are few example of expressions in
program:
– Expression to calculate speed of a car.
• Speed=distance/time
– Expression to find similarity of two things.
• c=value1>value2

• Expressions in C are basically operators acting on operands.
• An operand is an entity on which operation is to be performed.
Example: addition of two numbers, 5+8, these numbers will be
operands.
• An operator specifies the operation to be applied on operands.

Example: The addition, subtraction, etc will be operators
• Expressions are made of one or more operands.

• Statements like :
a = b + c,
300 > (8 * k)

Types of Expressions
• The type of expression depend upon the type of
operator used in the expression.
• It can be:
– Arithmetic operators.
3+6=9
4*2=8
– Relational or logical operators.
height_boy>=height_girl
– Increment and decrement operator.
count=count++

Find the output of the code
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int i = 1, 2, 3;
printf("%d", i);
return 0;
}
a)1 c) prints 1,2,3
b)3 d) compile time error

• In this lecture we will study
– Operators
– Types of Operators

Operators
• Operator is the symbol which performs some
operations on the operands.
5+5=10 + and = are the operator and

5 and 10 are operands

Types of Operators
• Types of operators are:
1. Arithmetic operator
2. Unary operator
3. Relational operator
4. Logical operator
5. Assignment operator
6. Conditional operator
7. Bitwise operator
8. Special operator

Operators
• Operator is the symbol which performs some
operations on the operands.
5+5=10 + and = are the operator and

5 and 10 are operands

1. Arithmetic operator
2. Unary operator
3. Relational operator
4. Logical operator
5. Assignment operator
6. Conditional operator
7. Bitwise operator
8. Special operator

Description of Operators
Arithmetic Operators
These are binary operators i.e. expression requires two operands
Operator Description Example (a=4 and b=2)
+ Addition of two operands a+b=6
- Subtraction of two operands a–b=2
* Multiplication of two operands a*b=8
/ Division of two operands a/b=2
% Modulus gives the remainder a%b=0
after division of two operands

MCQ
• Operator % in C Language is called.?
A) Percentage Operator
B) Quotient Operator
C) Modulus
D) Division

MCQ
• Choose a right statement.
int a = 10 + 4.867;
A) a = 10
B) a = 14.867
C) a = 14
D) compiler error.

Unary Operator
These operator requires only one operand.
Operator Description Example(count=1)
+ unary plus is used to show +count; value is 1
positive value
- unary minus negates the value of -count; value is -1
operand
++ Increment operator is used to ++count; value is 2
increase the operand value by 1 count++; value is 2
-- Decrement operator is used to --count; value is 1
decrease the operand value by 1 count--; value is 1
++count increments count by 1 and then uses its value as the value of the
expression. This is known a prefix operator.
count++ uses count as the value of the expression and then increments
count by 1. This is known as postfix operator.

MCQ
int main()
{
int c=--2;
printf(“c=%d”, c);
return 0;
}
a)1 b) -2 c) 2 d)error

MCQ
int main()
{
int x = 4, y, z;
y = --x;
z = x--;
printf("%d, %d, %d\n", x, y, z);
return 0;
}
a) 4,3,3 b)3,3,3 c)2,3,3 d)4,4,3

Unary Operators
Q: In an exam there was 10 question each carry 1 mark for right
answer and 0.50 marks were deducted for wrong answer. A
student attempted 6 questions and out of that 5 questions
were wrong. So what is the score of the student out of 10?
Sol: No. of questions attempted = 6
Marks deducted = 5 * 0.50 = 2.5
Unary Minus
Marks for right answer = 1 indicates that value is
Total marks = 1 – 2.5 = -1.5 negative.

Relational Operator
It compares two operands depending upon the their relation.
Expression generates zero(false) or nonzero(true) value.
Operator Description Example (a=10
and b=20)
< less than, checks if the value of left operand is less (a < b) value is 1(true)
than the value of right operand, if yes then condition
becomes true.
<= less than or equal to, checks if the value of left (a <= b) value is 1
operand is less than or equal to the value of right (true).
operand, if yes then condition becomes true.
> greater than, checks if the value of left operand is (a > b) value is 0 (not
greater than the value of right operand, if yes then true).
condition becomes true.
>= greater than or equal to, checks if the value of left (a >= b) value is 1
operand is greater than or equal to the value of right (true).
operand, if yes then condition becomes true.
== equality ,checks if the value of two operands is equal (a == b) value is 0
or not, if yes then condition becomes true. (not true).
!= inequality, checks if the value of two operands is equal (a != b) value is 1
or not, if values are not equal then condition becomes (true).
true.
Relational Operator
Q: Age of Sam is 20 and age of Tom is 19.
Verify the relationship between their age.
Sol: age of Sam = S1 = 20
age of Tom = T1 = 19
S1 < T1 = 0 (false)
S1 == T1 = 0 (false)
S1 > T1 = 1 (true)
So, Sam is elder than Tom.

Logical Operator
It checks the logical relationship between two expressions
and the result is zero( false) or nonzero(true).
Operator Description Example

&& Logical AND operator. If both the operands are (5>3 && 5<10) value is
true then condition becomes true. 1 (true).
|| Logical OR Operator. If any of the two (5>3 || 5<2) value is 1
operands is true then condition becomes true. (true).
! Logical NOT Operator. Use to reverses the !(8==8) value is 0
logical state of its operand. If a condition is (false).
true then Logical NOT operator will make
false.

Assignment Operator
They are used to assign the result of an expression on right side to a
variable on left side.
Operator Description Example(a=4 and b=2)
+= a=a+b a+=b; a=a+b = 6
-= a=a-b a-=b; a=a-b = 2
*= a=a*b a*=b; a=a*b = 8
/= a=a/b a/=b; a=a/b = 2
%= a=a%b a%=b; a=a%b = 0
<<= a=a<<b a=00000100 << 2 = 00010000
>>= a=a>>b A=00000100 >> 2 = 00000001
&= a=a&b (a=0100, b=0010) a&=b; a=a&b = 0000
|= a=a|b (a=0100, b=0010) a|=b; a=a|b =0110
^= a=a^b (a=0100, b=0010) a^=b; a=a^b = 0110

Assignment Operator
• To increase the cost of item soap by 50rs.
Cost_soap = Cost_soap + 50;
or Cost_soap += 50;
• To double the quantity of water in a bowl.
Water_inBowl *= 2;
 Therefore assignment operator are used to store the changed

value of the variable in the same variable.

Conditional Operator
Conditional operator contains condition followed by two
statements. If the condition is true the first statement is
executed otherwise the second statement.
It is also called as ternary operator because it requires three
operands.

?: conditional expression, (a>b)? “a is greater”: “b is
Condition? Expression1: Expression2 greater”

Conditional Operator
• Eligibility to cast vote
(age>=18)? “can cast vote”: “cannot cast vote”;
• In C
(age>=18)? printf(“can cast vote”) : printf(“cannot cast vote”);

MCQ
Choose a syntax for C Ternary Operator from
the list.
A) condition ? expression1 : expression2
B) condition : expression1 ? expression2
C) condition ? expression1 < expression2
D) condition < expression1 ? expression2

What is the output of the C statement.?
int main()
{
int a=0;
a = 5<2 ? 4 : 3;
printf("%d",a);
return 0;
}
A) 4 B) 3 C) 5 D) 2

Bitwise Operator
A bitwise operator works on each bit of data.
Logical Table Operator Description Example(a=1
a b a&b a|b a^b and b=0)
& bitwise AND a&b=0
0 0 0 0 0
0 1 0 1 1
| bitwise OR a| b = 1
1 1 1 1 0 ^ bitwise XOR a^b=1

1 0 0 1 1 ~ bitwise one’s ~a = 0, ~b=1
complement
<< bitwise left shift, 1101 << 1 = 1010
indicates the bits are
to be shifted to the
left.
>> bitwise right shift, 1101 >> 1 = 0110
indicates the bits are
to be shifted to the
right.
Some Special Operators

, comma operator, can be used to link int a, b, x;
the related expressions together
sizeof () sizeof operator to find the size of an int a; sizeof(a)=2
object.
type Cast operator, to change the data float x= 12.5;
type of the variable int a;
a = (int) x; value of a is 12.

MCQ
Choose a right statement.
int main()
{
float c = 3.5 + 4.5;
printf("%d", (int)c);
return 0;
}
A) 8.0 B) 8.000000 C) 7 D) 8

Precedence of Operators
• The precedence of operators determine a rank
for the operators. The higher an operator's
precedence or priority, the higher “binding”it
has on the operands.
Example: So how the expression a * b + c will be interpreted?

(a * b) + c or a * (b + c),
here the first interpretation is the one that is used because the multiplication
operator has higher precedence than addition.

Associativity of Operators
• Associativity tell us the order in which several operators with
equal precedence are computed or processed in two
directions, either from left to right or vice-versa.
Example: In the expression

a * b / c,
since multiplication and division have the same precedence we must use the
associativity to determine the grouping. These operators are left associative
which means they are grouped left to right as if the expression was
(a * b) / c.

Operator Associativity Type
() [] . -> ++(postfix) - - (postfix) left to right Highest
+ - ++ -- ! & * ~ sizeof (type) right to left Unary
* / % left to right multiplicative
+ - left to right additive
<< >> left to right shifting
< <= > >= left to right relational
== != left to right equality
& left to right bitwise AND
^ left to right bitwise OR
| left to right bitwise OR
&& left to right logical AND
|| left to right logical OR
?: right to left conditional
= += -= *= /= &= |= ^= <<= >>= %= right to left assignment
, left to right comma

• Control structure
Decision Statements
• If statement
• If-else statement
• Switch statement

Program
• Program is a set of instruction executed one by one.
• Depending upon the circumstances sometimes it is

desirable to alter the sequence of execution of
statements.
1. Wake up;
2. Get ready;
3. If you have enough time, then
eat breakfast;
4. Go to school.
Control Statements
• The C language programs until now follows a
sequential form of execution of statements.
• C language provides statements that can alter the
flow of a sequence of instructions. These statements
are called control statements.
• These statements help to jump from one part of the
program to another. The control transfer may be
conditional or unconditional.

Control Structure
• A control structure refers to the way in which the
programmer specifies the order of executing the
statements.
• Three control structures
– Sequence structure
• Programs are executed sequentially by default.
– Selection structures
• if, if…else, switch
– Repetition structures (iteration)
• while, do…while, for

Condition Statements
• The C condition statements or the decision
statements, checks the given condition
• Based upon the state of the condition, a sub-
block is executed.
• Decision statements are the:
– if statement
– if-else statement
– switch statement

if Statement
• If statement
– It is decision making statement uses keyword if.
– It allows the computer to evaluate the expression
first
• and then, depending on whether the value is ‘true’
or ‘false’, i.e. non zero or zero it transfers the
control to a particular statement.
A decision can be made on any expression.
zero - false
nonzero - true
Example:
3 < 4 is true
if Statement
Syntax
if (expression)
statement;
or
if (expression)
{
block of statements;
}

if Statement
• The if statement has the following syntax:
The condition must be a
boolean expression. It must
if is a C Evaluate to either non-zero or zero.
reserved word
if ( condition )/* no semi-colon */

statement;
If the condition is non-zero, the statement is executed.

If it is zero, the statement is skipped.

if..else statement
• The if statement executes only when the
condition following if is true.
• It does nothing when the condition is false.
• The if..else statement takes care of the
true and false conditions.

if..else statement
• if..else has two blocks.
• One block is for if and it is executed when
condition is non-zero(true).
• The other block is of else and its executed when
condition is zero (false).
Syntax
if (expression)
{
}
else
{
}
if..else statement
• The else statement cannot be used without
if.
• No multiple else statements are allowed
with one if.
• else statement has no expression.
• Number of else cannot be greater than
number of if.

Ternary conditional operator (?:)
• C code:
if ( marks>= 60 )
printf( "Pass\n");
else
printf( "Fail\n");
• Same code using ternary operator:
– Takes three arguments (condition, value if true, value if
false)
– Our code could be written:
printf("%s\n", grade >= 60 ? "Pass" : "Fail");
– Or it could have been written:
grade >= 60 ? printf(“Pass\n”) :
printf(“Fail\n”);

#include<stdio.h>

Program to
printf(“Enter the number :”); check
scanf(“%d”, &v);
if(v<10) whether

Nested if..else
• In if..else statement else block is executed by

• break is a keyword.
• break allows the programmer to terminate
the loop.
• A break statement causes control to transfer
to the first statement after the loop or block.
• The break statement can be used in nested
loops. If we use break in the innermost loop
then the control of the program is terminated
only from the innermost loop.

switch Statement
• The control statement that allows to make a decision
from the number of choices is called switch.
• Also called switch-case-default.
• The switch statement provides another way to decide
which statement to execute next.
• The switch statement evaluates an expression, then
attempts to match the result to one of several possible
cases.
• Each case contains a value and a list of statements.
• The flow of control transfers to statement associated
with the first case value that matches.

Repetition Statement
• A repetition statement allows you to specify
that an action is to be repeated while some
condition remains true.

Looping (repetition)
• What if we want to display hello 500 times?
– Should we write 500 printf statements or
equivalent ?
 Obviously not.
• It means that we need some programming
facility to repeat certain works.
• Such facility is available in form of looping
statements.

Loop
• The main idea of a loop is to repeat an action
or a series of actions.
The concept of a loop without condition

• But, when to stop looping?
• In the following flowchart, the action is executed
over and over again. It never stops – This is called
an infinite loop
• Solution – put a condition to tell the loop either
continue looping or stop.

Loop
• A loop has two parts –
body and condition
Condition
• Body – a statement or a
block of statements that True
will be repeated.
Repeated_Actions False
• Condition – is used to
control the iteration –
either to continue or stop
iterating.

Loop statements
• C provides three loop statements:

The “while” Statement in C
• The syntax of while statement in C:
Syntax
while (loop repetition condition){

statement; Condition
updating control;
}
True
Repeated_Actions False
While fatigue level is not

reached

while statement
while(loop repetition condition)
{
Statements;
}
Loop repetition condition is the condition which

controls the loop.
•The statement is repeated as long as the loop
repetition condition is true.
•A loop is called an infinite loop if the loop
repetition condition is always true.

What will be the output of the C
program?
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int i = 4,j = 7;
while(++i < --j)

The for Statement in C
• The syntax of for statement in C:
Syntax
for (initialization-expression;
loop-repetition-condition;
update-expression){
statement;
}
• The initialization-expression set the initial value of the
loop control variable.
• The loop-repetition-condition test the value of the
loop control variable.
• The update-expression update the loop control
variable.

Nested Loops
• Nested loops consist of an outer loop with one
or more inner loops.
• Eg:
Outer loop
for (i=1;i<=100;i++){
for(j=1;j<=50;j++){ Inner loop
…
}
}
• The above loop will run for 100*50 iterations.

The do-while Statement in C
• The syntax of do-while statement in C:
Syntax
do
{
statement;
} while (condition);
• The statement executed at least one time.

• For second time, If the condition is true, then the
statement is repeated else the loop is exited.

Jump statements
• You have learn that, the repetition of a loop is controlled by
the loop condition.
• C provides another way to control the loop, by using jump
statements.
• There are four jump statements:

break statement
• break is a keyword.
• break allows the programmer to terminate
the loop.
• A break statement causes control to transfer
to the first statement after the loop or block.
• The break statement can be used in nested
loops. If we use break in the innermost loop
then the control of the program is terminated
only from the innermost loop.

break statement
##include<stdio.h>
Program to
int main()
{ show use of
int n; break
for (n=10; n>0; n=n-1){
statement.
if (n<8)
break;
} //end for
}
10 9 8

continue statement
• continue statement is exactly opposite to
break.
• continue statement is used for continuing
the next iteration of the loop statements
• When it occurs in the loop, it does not
terminate, but skips the statements after this
statement

continue statement
• In while and do…while loops, the continue
statement transfers the control to the loop condition.
• In for loop, the continue statement transfers the
control to the updating part.

continue statement
#include<stdio.h>
Program to
int main()
{
show the use
int n; of continue
for (n=10; n>0; n=n-1){ statement in
if (n%2==1) for loop
continue;
}
}
10 8 6 4 2

continue statement
#include<stdio.h> Program to
int main()
show the use
{
int n = 10;
of continue
while(n>0){ statement in
printf(“%d”, n); for loop
For n=9, loop goes to infinite
if (n%2==1) execution
continue;
n = n –1;
}
}
The loop then prints
10 9 9 9 9 9 ………… number 9 over and over
again. It never stops.
goto
• Unconditionally transfer control.
• goto may be used for transferring control from one
place to another.
• The syntax is:
goto identifier;
Control is unconditionally transferred to the location of a
local label specified by identifier. For example,
Again:
...
goto Again;

goto statement
n=10;
A:
n=10 printf(“%d “, n);
n = n -1;
A
Print if (n>0)
n
goto A;
n = n -1
Output:
is n>0? True A
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
False

#include<stdio.h>
{
int x; show goto
printf(“enter a number: ”);
scanf(“%d”,&x); statement.
if(x%2==0)
goto even;
else
goto odd;
even:
printf(“ %d is even”, x);
return;
odd:
printf(“%d is odd”, x);
}
enter a number: 18
18 is even

return statement
• Exits the function.
• return exits immediately from the currently
executing function to the calling routine,
optionally returning a value. The syntax is:
• return [expression];
• For example,
int sqr (int x){
return (x*x);
}

Introduction
• Presentation of output is very important.
• Formatted functions scanf and printf :
– these functions input data from standard input
stream and
– output data to standard output stream.
• Include the header #include<stdio.h>

Standard I/O Functions
• There are many library functions available for
standard I/O.
• These functions are divided into two
categories:
–Unformatted functions
–Formatted functions

Formatted Functions
• With Formatted functions, input and output is
formatted as per our requirement
– For example, if different values are to be displayed,
how much field width i.e., how many columns on
screen, is to be used, and how much space between
two values is to be given. If a value to be displayed is
of real type, then how many decimal places to output
• Formatted functions are:
– printf()
– scanf()

Formatted output with printf function
• The printf() function: (Formatted output)
printf() is an output function that takes text and values from within
the program and sends it out onto the screen.
In general terms, the printf function is written as:
Syntax
printf(“format-control-string”, arg1,arg2,……….,argN);
• The format-control-string can contain:

– Characters that are simply printed as they are
– Conversion specifications that begin with a % sign
– Escape sequences that begin with a \ sign
 The arguments can be written as constants, single variable or array
names, or more complex expressions.

Example
printf(“Area of circle is %f units
\n”, area);
In this :-
“Area of circle is %f units \n”- is a
control string.
area - is a variable whose value will be printed.
%f- is the conversion specifier indicating the type of
corresponding value to be printed.

Formatted Functions
The scanf() function: (Formatted input)
scanf() is a function that reads data from the keyboard. It
interprets character input to the computer and stores the
interpretation in specified variable(s).
In general terms, the scanf function is written as:
Syntax
scanf (format-control-string, arg1, arg2,………., argN);
• The format-control-string can contain:

– Describes the format of the input.
– Conversion specifications that begin with a % sign.
• The arguments are the pointers to variables in which the input
will be stored.

Example:
scanf(“%s %d %f”, name, &age,
&salary);
In this :-
“%s %d %f”- is a control string.
name – is a string argument and it’s a array name
and implicit memory address reference.
age - is a decimal integer variable preceded by &.
salary - is floating-point value preceded by &.

Reading data
Conversion Specifier Description
d Read signed decimal integer
i Read a signed decimal integer
u Read an unsigned decimal integer
h or l Used before any integer conversion specifier to
indicate that a short or long integer is to be input,
respectively
e, E, f, g, G Read a floating-point value
c Read a character
s Read a string
p Read an address
% Skip the percent sign(%) in the input

#include <stdio.h>
int main( void )
{ int a, c;
float f;
char day[10];
printf( "Enter integers: " );
scanf( "%d %u", &a, &c);
printf( "Enter floating-point numbers:" );

scanf( "%f", &f);
printf( "%s", "Enter a string: " );

scanf( "%8s", day );
}
Enter integers: -89 23

Enter floating-point numbers:
1.34256
Enter a string:
monday

Unformatted functions
• The unformatted functions work only with character data
type.
• They do not require format conversion symbol for formatting
of data types because they work only with character data type
• Unformatted functions are:
– getchar() and putchar()
– getch() and putch()
– gets() and puts()

Unformatted Functions
• C has three types of I/O functions:
i. Character I/O
ii. String I/O
iii. File I/O

getchar()
• This function reads a character-type data from
standard input.
• It reads one character at a time till the user
presses the enter key.
Syntax
Variable-name = getchar();
Example:
char c;
c = getchar();
#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
char c;
printf(“enter a character”);
c=getchar();
printf(“c = %c ”,c);
}
Enter a character k
c = k

putchar()
• This function prints one character on the
screen at a time which is read by standard
input.
Syntax
putchar( variable name);
Example: char c= ‘c’;

putchar (c);

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
char ch;
printf(“enter a character: ”);
scanf(“%c”, ch);
putchar(ch);
}
enter a character: r
r

getch() & getche()
• These functions read any alphanumeric character
from the standard input device
• The character entered is not displayed by the getch()
function until enter is pressed
• The getche() accepts and displays the character.
• The getch() accepts but does not display the
character.
Syntax
getche();

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
printf(“Enter two alphabets:”);
getche();
getch();
}
Enter two alphabets a

putch()
This function prints any alphanumeric character
taken by the standard input device
#include<stdio.h>
Example:
void main()
{
char ch;
printf(“Press any key to continue”);
ch = getch();
printf(“ you pressed:”);
putch(ch);
}
Press any key to continue

You pressed : e

gets()
String I/O
• This function is used for accepting any string
until enter key is pressed (string will be
covered later)
Syntax
char str[length of string in number];
gets(str);

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
char ch[30];
printf(“Enter the string:”);
gets(ch);
printf(“Entered string: %s”, ch);
}
Enter the string: Use of data!

Entered string: Use of data!

puts()
• This function prints the string or character
array. It is opposite to gets()
Syntax
char str[length of string in number];
gets(str);
puts(str);

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
char ch[30];
printf(“Enter the string:”);
gets(ch);
puts(“Entered string:”);
puts(ch);
}
Enter the string: puts is in use

Entered string: puts is in use
