C Language is a programming language created in 1972 by Dennis Ritchie. It is the most popular programming language in the world.
Why Learn C Language
To start learning a programming language, everyone chooses C language because it makes it easier to understand the logic behind problem-solving techniques. There are many languages like JavaScript, Python, etc. are created using C language.
To code, a system software, drivers, kernels, and operating systems, It is very necessary to know the C language. Because all of them can only be created in C Language.
Introduction to Problem-Solving Technique
Not only for the C Language but the techniques of Problem-Solving can be used in any language and problems are also related to the real world. To solve a problem we need to understand the systematic approach.
Computer Programmers are nothing else than problem solvers. To describe a solution for a problem we can use algorithms, flowcharts, pseudo-code, etc.
Step-by-step instructions to solve any given computational problem in the form of a computational process are called Problem-Solving Techniques.
Steps to Problem-Solving
- Understanding the problem
- Identifying the goal that we want to achieve
- Creating a path to achieve the solution to that problem
- Implementing using the programming language
Mostly Used Problem-Solving Techniques
- Brainstorming
- Divide and Conquer
- Reduction
- Trial and Error
- Heuristic
- Exhaustic Search
- Backtracking
- Greedy
