  8. 1. Background • 1.1 Review of Basics • Machine language: object code • Assembly language: • High level language: source code • Compiler • Assembler • The obj code is usually not immediately executable • - Need other obj code, e.g., library • A collection of routines • Two parts: header file, obj code 

  9. Linker: combine your obj code to lib. obj code • Result: an executable thing • Preprocessor: part of compiler • - Job: combine header files with your source code • Then do compilation 

  10. 1.2 Features of C • Middle level language • Initially used for system software • - What is system software? • Unix was almost totally rewritten in C • - Pros • - Cons 

  11. 1.3 Evolution of C • Invented by Dennis Richie • A “standard book”: • The C Language, by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Richie (1978) • ANSI (American National Standard Institute) C (1989) • Slightly modified in 1996 • 1.4 Why learning C? • Nowadays C is widely used to develop application software • - What is application software? • It is easier to learn C++ or Java if you know C already

  12. 2. Essentials of C • 2.1 A Minimum C Code • Every C code must have one and only one main() function • main() • { • } • Your code starts executing things inside main

  13. 2.2 Basic Program Structure • /* comments */ • # Preprocessor directives • /* e.g. #include <stdio.h> */ • main() • { • /* comments */ • Declaration statements; • /* comments */ • Other C statements; • }

  14. 2.3 Some Important Rules • - Rule 1: All statements must end with a semi-colon ";" • - Rule 2: Keywords, function names, and variable names are case sensitive • e.g. #include is not #Include • main() is not Main() • image_flag is not Image_Flag

  15. 2.4 Comments • - Comments are enclosed by the "/*" and "*/" pair • - Comments can be placed almost anywhere in a C program • - Except in the middle of any C keywords, function name or variable name • x/* comments */2 = 7.0; • - Nested comments are not allowed • /* comment1 /* comment2*/ */

  16. 2.5 Preprocessor Directive #include • Tells compiler to include the content of a file in your program • general formats • #include <filename> • - Tells compiler to search for the file in • a prearranged directory /usr/include/ • #include "filename" • - Tells compiler to search for the file first in • the current working directory, and then in the prearranged directory • Typical files to be include are header files with suffix h • They contain information about the library functions using in your program • e.g. stdio.h (to use scanf()and printf()) • math.h (to use sqrt())

  17. 2.6 Preprocessor Directive #define • General format: • #define string1 string2 • - Tells compiler to replace every subsequent occurrence of "string 1” with "string2" • - #define is mainly used for assigning symbolic names to program constants • e.g. : Want to evaluate area for a circle, the equation is • #define PI 3.14159 • main(){ • float r, A; • r = 10.0; • A = PI*r*r; • }

  18. 2.7 Variable Declaration and Initialization • All C variables must be declared before they can be used • General form: • data_type var1, var2, … var5; • Examples of data_type are: • int i,j; /* integers */ • float x,y; /* single precision real numbers */ • double z; /* double precision real numbers */

  19. variable name • - letters of the alphabet a to z • - digits 0 to 9 • - underscore _ • must start with either a letter or the underscore • e.g. a_2, _bBc legal • 2_a illegal • case sensitive i.e. count is not Count • variables can be initialized in the declaration statement • e.g. float a = 1.0; • statements can extent over several lines, but must end with a semi-colon";" • e.g. float a = 1.0, b = 2.0, d = 3.0, e = 4.0, f = 5.0, • g = 3.0;

  20. 2.8 Arithmetic Operations • Arithmetic operators for int, float, and double variables: • + addition • - subtraction • * multiplication • / division • e.g. The equation x = 3y/z +2y is written in C as • x = 3 * y / z + 2 * y;

  21. order of precedence • - All operators have a priority. High priority operators are evaluated before low priority ones. Operators of the same priority are evaluated from left to right. • - From high to low priority the order for some C operators is • () • * / • + - • = • - e.g. a + b + c means (a + b) + c “left to right” • - e.g. a + b *c means a + (b * c) “ * “ has higher priority than “+”

  22. 2.9 Mathematical Functions • sin(), cos(), sqrt(), log(), exp(), log10(), pow() • to use them must have #include <math.h> • e.g. • /* calculate */ • x = pow(y,4);

  23. 2.10 An Example #include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> main(){ /* Declare and initialize variables. */ double x=2, u, z; u = sqrt(x); z = sin(u); /* Print result */ printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %15.10f \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %15.2f \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %-15.2f \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %.10f \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %f \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %e \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %E \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %g \n", z); printf("The result of sin(sqrt(2)) is: %G \n", z); }

  24. - Puta header into your code in all following assignments in C - Example: /* ============================================ */ /* */ /* Assignment # 0 */ /* */ /* Course: SYEN 4385 Section: */ /* Author: Your Name */ /* Date: 09/30/2004 */ /* */ /* Program name: foo_1.c */ /**/ /* Description: This program shows */ /* the features that …… */ /* */ /* ============================================ */

  25. 2.11 Compiling and Running the C Program • To compile, do: • gcc sin_square.c -lm • - Option “-lm” tells the computer to link the math library • - An executable code, a.out, is automatically created • - Then, type ./a.out • Another way: • gcc sin_square.c -o sin_square -lm • - This will result in an executable code, sin_square • - Then, type ./ sin_square

  26. 3. Basic Input and Output • 3.1 printf() • printf is a library function • Need: #include <stdio.h> • Display text and data values on standard output - monitor • Example 1: • printf(“Hello, me\n"); • Output on your monitor will be • Hello, me • \n is the newline character • Example 2: • int i; float a; • printf(“%d %f”, i, a); • %f is a format specifier (format code) which tells computer that the data is a float number.

  27. - Example 3: display more than one variables float x1 = 1.0, x2 = 2.0, x3 = 3.0; int i = 4; printf(”output: %f,%f,",x1,x2); printf("%f\n",x3); printf("%d\n",i); - Output: >output: 1.000000, 2.000000, 3.000000 >4 >

  28. 3.2 scanf() • Need: #include <stdio.h> • Reads data from standard input (keyboard) • Example 1: read one float number: • float x2; • scanf("%f",&x2); • The & symbol is C's address of operation; &x2 denotes the address of the variable x2

  29. Example 2: read more than one number: • scanf("%f%f", &x3, &x4); • Example 3: read different types of data: • scanf("%d%d%f%f", &i, &j, &x1, &x2);

  30. 3.3 Formatted Output %w.pf for decimal notation %w.pe for scientific notation %wd for integers - where w = total field width p = # of digits after the decimal point double x=2, u, z; u = sqrt(x); z = sin(u); printf("expression1: %15.10f \n", z); printf("expression2: %15.2f \n", z); printf("expression3: %-15.2f \n", z); printf("expression4: %.10f \n", z); printf("expression5: %f \n", z); printf("expression6: %e \n", z); printf("expression7: %E \n", z); printf("expression8: %g \n", z); printf("expression9: %G \n", z); expression1: 0.9877659460 expression2: 0.99 expression3: 0.99 expression4: 0.9877659460 expression5: 0.987766 expression6: 9.877659e-01 expression7: 9.877659E-01 expression8: 0.987766 expression9: 0.987766

  31. 3.4 Linux I/O Redirection • In Linux, you can redirect I/O from standard I/O (keyboard and screen) to some data files. • Example: • ./a.out > my_output_file

  32. 4. Control Flow • Expression, statement, and blocks • - An expression such as y=4 or printf(…)becomes a statement when it is followed by a semicolon • - In C, the semicolon is a statement terminator, rather than a separator • - Braces { } are used to group things together into a compound statement, or block • - No semicolon after the right brace • { • x=7; y=10; y=y+1; • x=y+6+x; • }

  33. - Operators used in conditional expressions • Relational operators: • > greater than • >= greater or equal to • < less than • <= less or equal to • == equal to • != not equal to • Logical Operators • && AND • || OR • ! NOT

  34. 4.1 The if Statement • General format • if ( expression ) • { statement 1; • … … … … … … • statement n; } • - expression can be any valid C expression (conditional or math expressions). • - statements will be executed when expression is evaluated to be non-zero. • - When there is only one statement, the braces { } are not needed.

  35. Example 1: • if(a >= b) c=1; • - means: if a is greater than or equal to b, then set c to 1. • Example 2: • if((a==b)&&(c>d)) • { e=1; f=2; • g=2*f+e; } • - means: if a is equal to b and also c is greater than d, then set e to 1 and set f to 2; next, evaluate equation (2f + e) and assign the value to g.

  36. Example 3. • If (a==3) b=1; • means: if a is equal to 3, set b to 1 • Example 4. • If (a=3) b=1; • result: b is always set to 1

  37. 4.2 The if - else Structure • General form: • if (expression ) • { statement a1; • . • . • . • statement aN; } • else • { statement b1; • . • . • . • statement bM; } • If expression is evaluated to non-zero, statement a1 to aN will be executed; otherwise, statement b1 to bM will be executed.

  38. 4.3 The if - else if - else Structure • General form: • if (expression_1 ) • { statement 1a; statement 1b; ... • } • else if ( expression_2 ) • { statement 2a; statement 2b; ... • } • . • . • . • else if ( expression_N ) • { statement Na; statement Nb; ... • } • else • { statement a; statement b; ... • }

  39. The if - else if - else Structure • Starting from expression_1: if any of these expression is evaluated to be nonzero, statements belonging to that block will be executed • For example, if expression_1 is zero, but expression_2 is nonzero, then statements 2a, 2b ... will be executed; • If all expressions are zero, then the statements belonging to else will be executed. • In C, nonzero means true

  40. 4.4 The for Loop • General Format: • for (initialization; conditional test; increment) • { • statement_1; • . • . • . • } • for (expr1; expr2; expr3) { • …… …… • } • - Usually, expr3 updates the loop-control variable, e.g. i=i+1

  41. Example 1: • i=1; • for(k=0; k<=2; k=k+1) • {i=i+7; • } • action k i new i • start 0 1 8 • 1 8 15 • 2 15 22 • stop • Result: i = 22

  42. Example 2: • i=1; • j=2; • for( k=3; k<5; k=k+1) • {i=i+1; • j=j+2; • } • action k i new i j new j • start 3 1 2 2 4 • 4 2 3 4 6 • 5 • stop • Result: i =3, j =6

  43. Example 3: • i=0; • for(k=5; k<0; k=k+1) i=i+1; • Action k i new i • start 5 • stop • - Results: No loop! (k start with 5 which is not less than zero).

  44. Example 4: • i=0; • for(k=5; k>0; k=k+1) i=i+1; • - Result: infinite loop! BAD!!! (k is always greater than zero)

  45. The for Loop in C is more flexible than other languages • (1) You don’t have to use the loop-control variable to break the loop • k=5; • for (i=0; k!=7; i=i+1) • { k=k+1; • …… …… …… • } • Any of the 3 parts in the for loop may be omitted • The semicolons must remain • (2) expr1 can be omitted • i=50; • for( ; i; i--){ • …… …… …… • }

  46. (3) If expr2 is omitted, it means “always true”, resulting in an infinite loop • for(a=1; ;a=a+2) • { • …… …… …… • } • (4) • for(; ;) • { • …… …… …… • } • (5) You can update the loop-control variable inside the loop body • for(i=4; i<16;) • { • printf(“%d”, i); • i=i+1; • }
