Learning the C Programming Language as a Classical Musician

Episode 16 — Types (Part 8: Practical Examples) Welcome back! Finally, after a much longer hiatus I could have ever forecasted, I am finally able to get back to learning, and to writing, sharing all these things with you. Today we are continuing our journey through derived types which, after last lesson’s arrays, await usContinue reading “Learning the C Programming Language as a Classical Musician”

Episode 15 — Types (Part 7: Practical Examples) Welcome back! Our journey into C types enters its final stage: after basic types and enumerated types, it is now the turn of derived types. This category contains arrays, structures, unions, functions, pointers, and atomic types. We have just scratched the surface of most of them inContinue reading “Learning the C Programming Language as a Classical Musician [15]”

Episode 14 — Types (Part 6: Practical Examples) Welcome back! In the last episode, we studied floating-point numbers and how they can be used in C, with particular interest into how the compiler stores their precision. Much has evolved since the introduction of the C Programming Language in the 1970s in the way computers work,Continue reading “Learning the C Programming Language as a Classical Musician [14]”

Episode 13 — Types (Part 5: Practical Examples) Welcome back! Today, we continue our journey through practical examples of types in the C programming language. We dedicated the whole of the last episode to integers, saw how the C compiler handles them, and met the modulo % operator, used to return the remainder of aContinue reading “Learning the C Programming Language as a Classical Musician [13]”
