Features: This is the second edition of C Programming for Engineering Professionals, introducing the powerful and portable standard programming language—ANSIC. The book presents a systematic approach to problem-solving by addressing current hot topics such as mobile communication, network configuration, and DNA structure diagram drawing. It demonstrates how to design cohesive, readable, and reusable modular program solutions using software engineering methods. The book covers key topics including computer and software, C language, data types, operators and simple functions, selection structures: if statements and switch statements, loop statements, modular programming, arrays, multi-dimensional arrays, structure types, handling text and binary files, large-scale programming, numerical methods, an introduction to C++, character sets, ANSIC standard library functions, C language operators, C numeric types, enumeration types, pointer operations, and dynamic allocation of two-dimensional arrays, as well as answers to selected exercises. This book can serve as a beginner's tutorial for C programming in engineering, an auxiliary textbook for ANSIC programming enthusiasts, and a reference guide for engineering students in higher vocational and technical colleges.
