C (Programming Language)

C is a general-purpose, procedural computer programming language supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope, and recursion, with a static type system. Coursera's C programming language catalogue teaches you about one of the most powerful and efficient languages, widely used in developing operating systems, interpreters, and embedded systems. You'll learn major concepts like data types, loops, functions, arrays, pointers, and memory management, among others. This understanding will enable you to write efficient, maintainable, and robust code in C programming language boosting your skills in software development, system programming, and problem-solving in various computationally intensive fields.
