Bridge Course on Fundamentals of C Programming

A Bridge Course on “Fundamentals of C Programming” for basic level engineering students introduces the essential concepts required to begin programming and problem solving. It covers the structure of a C program, syntax rules, variables, data types, operators, and basic input/output operations. Students learn the use of control structures such as decision-making (if-else, switch) and looping (for, while, do-while), along with arrays, strings, and functions for modular programming. The course also highlights the importance of pointers, simple memory concepts, and an introduction to structures for handling complex data. Emphasis is placed on developing logic, writing error-free code, debugging, and executing simple programs, preparing students with the foundational skills needed for advanced programming and engineering applications.
