MCA-103 Programming and Problem Solving in C
UNIT-I- An overview: Problem identification, analysis, design, coding, testing & debugging, implementation,modification & maintenance; algorithms & flowcharts; Characteristics of a good program - accuracy,simplicity, robustness, portability, minimum resource & time requirement, modularization; Rules/ conventions of coding, documentation, naming variables; Top down design; Bottom-up design.
- Fundamentals of C Programming: History of C; Structure of a C Program; Data types; Constant & Variable, naming variables; Operators & expressions; Control Constructs – if-else, for, while, do-while;Case switch statement; Arrays; Formatted & unformatted I/O; Type modifiers & storage classes; Ternary operator; Type conversion & type casting; Priority & associativity of operators.
- Modular Programming: Functions; Arguments; Return value; Parameter passing – call by value, call by reference; Return statement; Scope, visibility and life-time rules for various types of variable, static variable; Calling a function; Recursion – basics, comparison with iteration, types of recursion- direct, indirect, tree and tail recursion, when to avoid recursion, examples.
- Advanced Programming Techniques: Special constructs – Break, continue, exit(), goto & labels; Pointers -& and * operators, pointer expression, pointer arithmetic, dynamic memory management functions like malloc(), calloc(), free(); String; Pointer v/s array; Pointer to pointer; Array of pointer & its limitation; Function returning pointers; Pointer to function, Function as parameter; Structure – basic, declaration, membership operator, pointer to structure, referential operator, self referential structures, structure within structure, array in structure, array of structures; Union – basic, declaration; Enumerated data type;Type def; command line arguments.
- Miscellaneous Features: File handling and related functions; printf & scanf family;C preprocessor –basics, #Include, #define, #undef, conditional compilation directive like #if, #else, #elif, #endif, #ifdef and #ifndef; Variable argument list functions.
