UE23CS151B: Problem Solving with C

In Problem Solving with C Course, will be learning to solve common types of computational problems, by analyzing the given problem statement and developing an algorithm to solve the given problem. Then make use of C language constructs to develop well-structured programs.

Course objectives

  • Acquire knowledge on how to solve relevant and logical problems using computing machine
  • Map algorithmic solutions to relevant features of C programming language constructs
  • Gain knowledge about C constructs and its associated eco-system
  • Appreciate and gain knowledge about the issues with C Standards and its respective behaviours
  • Get insights about testing and debugging C Programs

Course outcomes

At the end of the course, the student will be able to

  • Understand and apply algorithmic solutions to counting problems using appropriate C Constructs
  • Understand, analyse and apply text processing and string manipulation methods using C Arrays, Pointers and functions
  • Understand prioritized scheduling and implement the same using C structures
  • Understand and apply sorting techniques using advanced C constructs
  • Understand and evaluate portable programming techniques using preprocessor directives and conditional compilation of C Programs
