Author: Brian Beej Jorgensen Hall

a beginner-friendly, informal introduction to the C programming language. Written in Beej’s signature conversational tone, the guide walks readers through the core concepts of C—from variables, data types, and control structures to pointers, memory management, and file I/O—making often-intimidating topics more approachable. It balances clear explanations with practical examples and thoughtful insights about how C works under the hood. Ideal for aspiring programmers and curious developers, the guide encourages hands-on learning and builds a solid foundation for further exploration in systems programming or other low-level computing domains.
