Every great journey starts with a single step, and today, I took my first step into learning the C programming language! 🚀 As a beginner, I started with some simple yet essential programs to understand basic syntax, input, and output in C. In this blog, I’ll share my experience, the programs I wrote, and what I learned along the way.

Why C?

C is one of the oldest and most powerful programming languages. It serves as the foundation for many modern languages like C++, Java, and Python. Learning C helps build strong programming fundamentals, improves problem-solving skills, and understands how computers work at a lower level.

The First Programs I Wrote

To get familiar with C, I started with some simple mathematical programs. These helped me understand variables, data types, operators, and basic I/O (input/output) functions like printf() and scanf().

1. Calculating the Area of a Square

2. Calculating the Area of a Circle

3. Calculating the perimeter of a rectangle

4. Calculating the Cube of a Number

My first day of learning C was exciting! Writing these basic programs gave me confidence and helped me understand the core concepts of the language. I am looking forward to learning more about loops, functions, and arrays in the coming days.
