C: Fundamentals and System Programming

Abstract
A focused guide on C programming emphasizing low-level programming, memory management, pointers, file I/O,
and system programming concepts.

Introduction
C is a procedural programming language created by Dennis Ritchie. It provides low-level access to memory and is
commonly used for systems programming.

Core Syntax
Variables, types, control structures, functions, and header files.

Pointers & Memory Management


Pointer arithmetic, dynamic allocation (malloc/free), stack vs heap, and common bugs.

File I/O & Standard Library


stdio.h functions, fopen/fread/fwrite, error handling.

Compiling & Toolchain


gcc/clang, makefiles, linker concepts, debugging with gdb, sanitizers.

Sample Code
#include
int main() { printf("Hello, C!\n"); return 0; }

System Programming
Interacting with OS via system calls, sockets, and processes.

Performance & Safety


Optimization tips, undefined behavior, and modern safety practices.
