Why We Program?

 We usually cause errors (hay sai), quickly forget


something (mau quên) and are not tenacious
(chóng chán)
 Computers are our assistances
 They need to be taught how to work
 To teach a computer working, we use a
programming language.

Why C is chosen?
 Top ten common programming languages:

Prerequisites

• Completed EN051 or obtain 500+ TOEFL


equivalent international certificates

Course Objectives
• We plan to understand a subset of the C language,
rather than the whole thing, is to make learning
easier, and how and why the C language is learned
and applied as the basic language syntax.
– The keyword is understand !! We must not be satisfied by
just learning a bunch of information about the C language
syntax – our goal is to learn how to implement the console
application/ algorithms/ … using the C language and what
makes them good.
– As we proceed to learn and use the C language, we shall
pick up the underlying theory and basic syntax.
– This will be a practical course !! We shall use the Dev-C++
4.9.9.2 for Windows program to learn C language.
– Remember: The C language is the language of the low level
nature. Therefore, it is critical to understand the C language syntax.
