Start C Programing
If you are starting C programming then you will need IDE(like code::blocks) or notepad (like vs code) and C compiler (like GCC compiler).
WHAT IS IDE
1. IDE stands for an Integrated Development Enviroment. 2. In simple language IDE provides all the tool and compiler by combining them in a single software.How to install CODE::BLOCKS
1. you now click this link code::blocks and download now 2. goto download file and run(double click) this file codeblocks-20.03-setup.exe and allow and click next next and install now.
How to install vs code
1. you now click this link vs code and download now
2. goto download file and run(double click) this file VSCodeUserSetup.exe and allow and click next next and install now.
3. VS Code is a code editer nothings like IDE.
4. If you install vs code then you have to install compiler along with it then only you can compile and run your program.
5. you now click setting in vs code and search terminal and tick now.
What is Compiler for C
A C compiler is a computer program that translates source code written in the C programming language into machine-readable binary code that can be executed by a computer. The process of compilation involves several stages, including lexical analysis, syntax analysis, semantic analysis, code generation, and optimization. When a C program is written, it is saved in a text file with the file extension ".c". The C compiler reads this file and checks the syntax and semantics of the code to make sure it conforms to the rules of the C language. If the code is valid, the compiler generates machine code that can be executed directly by the computer's CPU. There are many C compilers available, both free and commercial. Some popular C compilers include GCC (GNU Compiler Collection), Clang, Microsoft Visual C++, and Turbo C. Each compiler has its own strengths and weaknesses, and some may be better suited for specific tasks or platforms than others.
How to install GCC Compiler
1. you now click this link GCC Compiler(mingw) and click download now 2. goto download file and run(double click) this file mingw-get-setup.exe and click install. 3. Show the default file directory and click on Continue button 4. click basic setup and click all package 5. click installation and click apply changes.
