Features: C is a modular and structured programming language with rich functionality, strong expressive power, and broad applicability. It also offers advantages such as flexibility, high efficiency of the target program, strong portability of code, and the ability to directly operate on hardware. These features have made it widely popular among domestic and international engineering and technical personnel. C is extensively used as a computer language for scientific computing and business processing. Learning and mastering C is one of the fundamental skills for engineering and technical personnel. Even in today's rapidly developing and advancing information technology, C remains an important tool for programmers and serves as the foundation for further learning advanced programming languages such as C++/VC++, JAVA, C#, and .NET. The editor-in-chief of this book had already used C for programming to solve technical problems such as CNC machining, robot control, and the driving and communication of computer peripherals during his studies and work abroad in the 1980s. Upon returning to China, he compiled his experiences in learning and applying C into a specialized book, which was later used as a textbook for programming courses for engineering students in universities. To meet the needs of development and the practical situations of applied undergraduate and vocational college students, the author has made significant updates to the original book, adding numerous application examples. Special attention is paid to cultivating students' problem-solving abilities in terms of methods and approaches. Each chapter includes a large number of exercises for students to practice and self-study. The book is rich in content, novel, and highly practical. It can be used as a programming textbook for students in specialized fields such as mechanical manufacturing and automation, mechatronics engineering, industrial engineering, and management engineering in higher vocational and technical colleges. It is also suitable for engineering and technical personnel in enterprises and research institutions to learn and reference.
