Advanced Topics in C
C is the most widely used programming language of all time. It has been used to
create almost every category of software imaginable and the list keeps growing
every day. Cutting-edge applications, such as Arduino, embeddable and wearable
computing are ready-made for C.
Advanced Programming In C teaches concepts that any budding programmer
should know. You’ll delve into topics such as sorting, searching, merging, recur-
sion, random numbers and simulation, among others. You will increase the range
of problems you can solve when you learn how to manipulate versatile and popular
data structures such as binary trees and hash tables.
This book assumes you have a working knowledge of basic programming con-
cepts such as variables, constants, assignment, selection (if..else) and looping
(while, for). It also assumes you are comfortable with writing functions and working
with arrays. If you study this book carefully and do the exercises conscientiously,
you would become a better and more agile programmer, more prepared to code
today’s applications (such as the Internet of Things) in C.
With Advanced Programming In C, you will learn:
• What are and how to use structures, pointers, and linked lists
• How to manipulate and use stacks and queues
• How to use random numbers to program games, and simulations
• How to work with files, binary trees, and hash tables
• Sophisticated sorting methods such as heapsort, quicksort, and mergesort
• How to implement all of the above using C
