Description
C Language Overview
This chapter describes the basic details about C programming language, how it emerged,
What are strengths of C and why we should use C.
The C programming language is a general purpose, high level language that was
originally developed by Dennis M. Ritchie to develop the UNIX
operating system at Bell Labs. C was originally first implemented on the DEC PDP
11 computer in 1972.
In 1978, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie produced the first publicly available
description of C, now known as the K&R standard. The UNIX operating system, the C compiler, and essentially all UNIX applications programs have been written in C.
The C has now become a widely used professional language for various reasons.
Easy to learn
Structured language
It produces efficient programs.
It can handle low level activities.
It can be compiled on a variety of computer platforms.
Facts about C
C was invented to write an operating system called UNIX.
C is a successor of B language, which was introduced around 1970.
The language was formalized in 1988 by the American National Standard
Institute.(ANSI).
The UNIX OS was totally written in C by 1973

A function is a relation from a set of inputs to a set of possible outputs where each input is related to exactly one output. This means that if the object x is in the set of inputs (called the domain) then a function f will map the object x to exactly one object y=f(x) in the set of possible outputs (called the codomain). Analogously, a function can be viewed as a machine whose row material is its input and the final product is output. In addition to f(x), other abbreviated symbols such as g(x) and P(x) are often used to represent functions of the independent variable x, especially when the nature of the function is unknown or unspecified.

Alkyl Halides and Nucleophilic Substitution
Trending!
Alkyl halides are organic molecules containing a halogen
atom bonded to an sp3 hybridized carbon atom.
Alkyl halides are classified as primary (1°), secondary (2°),
or tertiary (3°), depending on the number of carbons bonded
to the carbon with the halogen atom

In physics we deal with physical quantities which are usually quantified by measuring. The process of measuring involves assigning a number to a physical quantity by comparing it with a standard. The standard quantity is called unit and used to measure the given physical quantity. For instance when we say the length is 5 m, it means the standard used is one meter ( 1 m) and
the length is 5 times of the standard length. A standard adopted as a unit should have the following features:
i) It must be universally acceptable and of reasonable size.
ii) Its magnitude must be definite and definable
iii) Its magnitude should not change with time, temperature and pressure i.e. it should be invariable and
iv) It should be reproducible.
