Course Description
The fastest, easiest way to learn to program C on a Mac or Windows. This course will teach you to program the C language from the ground up. You will learn everything from the very fundamentals of programming right through to the complexities of pointers, addresses and File IO. Maybe you've tried to master C before but failed. Or maybe you are new to C or new to programming. If so, this is the course for you!
C is one of the most important of all programming languages. It is used to program desktop applications, compilers, tools and utilities and even hardware devices. The C language is fast and efficient – but it can be hard to learn. Unless you use this course. This course begins with a gentle introduction to C but quickly moves on to explain some of its most confusing features: everything from C's 'scoping' rules to the curious connection between arrays and memory addresses. By the end of the course you will have a deep understanding both of the C language itself and also of the underlying 'architecture' of your computer.
What you will learn:
- The fundamentals of programming – from the ground up
- How to program on a Mac or on Windows
- The nitty-gritty details of the C language
- Advanced topics such as memory allocation, the stack and heap, and binary file IO
Who should take the course
- Beginners – if you've never coded before, you can learn C step by step
- Programmers switching to C from some other language such as Java, Ruby or Python
- Cross-platform developers – there are C compilers for all major operating systems
- Anyone who needs to program C++ or Objective-C. The C language is the place to start

The only review you need. The sad thing about this course is that the teacher is actually amazing at explaining things and you'll have no problem understanding the concepts. The issue however, is that the course is extremely outdated. The things you'll be learning is probably from the first version of C and not the latest C17. As a result, there's a lot of things he teaches that don't work anymore. Another benefit is that the course is for free, and as I explained the teaching is good, so you could use this to learn the fundamentals, just don't expect all your programmes to work.

All over the place. Not for beginners. Little explanation. The method of teaching doesnt keep one engaged easily. Smart man though.
By Ken Fuller on 11/7/2020

It's a beginners C programming course, just like the title says, do not expect intermediate stuff.
By Chie Nwawudu on 10/17/2020
This was a good refresher course for me.
Most of the course was familiar. However, I still managed to learn a lot, even though I thought I knew it all.

Learning on different Operating Systems is good, I use them.
By Katrina Kornylo on 8/25/2020
I did learn a lot about the basics, but it would have helped me to have a few assignments to practice what I learned.
By Ian Taylor on 8/23/2020
Wish there was more practicals.

No explanation

good as yet
By Chih Yuan Chu on 8/16/2020
This course is definitely not for beginners. The class instructors skipped a lot of details on how to use library functions (especially in the chapter explaining the standard I/O functions and failed to explain all the datatype in C. A lot of time, I have to resort to Youtube free courses to get needed details to get through this course
