FEATURES OF C LANGUAGE

If you want to learn C language and become a pro of this programming language then you should know  the main features of this language.

In this blog I am going to tell you about the essential features of C language. So, we start our discussion on the features of C, you must know about the C language. Let's have a look at it brief introduction.

C is very simple and easy language. It was developed by DENNISH RITCHIE  in 1972 at BELL LABS .  This language is mainly used for develop desktop based application. C programming covers basic features of all programming language. It is one of the widely used language in the world. It provides lots of features that are given blow.

Features Of  C Programming:

• Simple
• Powerful
• Platform dependent
• Case sensitive
• Compiler Based
• Syntax Based programming language
• Machine Independent Or Portable
• Mid-level programming language
• Structured programming language
• Rich Library
• Memory Management
• Fast speed
• Pointers
• Recursion
• Extensible 

Here I'm giving you explanation of above given points:

• Simple

C programming can be written in English language so that it is very easy to understand and developed by programmer. It provides break the problem into parts, rich set library function, data types etc.

• Powerful 

This programming language is very Strong(Powerful) language.

• Case sensitive 

It is case sensitive programming language. In C programming ‘break and BREAK’ both are different.

• Platform dependent 

C programming is  a platform dependent language. Whenever the program is execute in the same operating system where that was developed and compiled but not run and execute on other operating system.

• Compiler Based 

C Language is compiler based programming language that means without compilation no C program can be executed. First we need compiler to compile our program and then we'll able to execute it.

• Syntax Based programming language

C is strongly tight syntax based programming language

• Machine Independent Or Portable 

Unlike assembly language, C programs can be executed in many machine with little bit or no change. But it is not platform-independent.

• Mid-level programming language

C is also used to do low level programming language. It is used to develop system application kernel, driver etc. It also supports the features of high level language. That is why it is known as mid-level language.

• Structured programming language

C is structured programming language in the sense that we can break the program into parts using functions. So, it is easy to understand and modify.

• Rich Library

C programming language offers alot of prdefine functions that makes the development fast.

• Memory Management

It supports the features of dynamic memory allocation. In C language, we free the allocated memory at any time by calling the free() function.  Fast speed. 

• Fast speed 

The compilation and execution time of c language is fast.

• Pointers

C language provides the feature of pointers. We can directly interact with the memory by using the pointers. We can use pointers for memory, functions, array etc.

• Recursion

In C programming we can call the function within the function. It provides code reusability for every function.

• Extensible

C language is extensible because it can easily adopt new features.

Summary:

So, these are some features of this structured programming language. Hope this blog would be beneficial for you to understand the C language.

To enhance your programming skills and to become a C programmer you should definitely go head for advanced  C courses offered by one of the best C Training Institute in Delhi.
