1
C, a statically typed procedural programming language famous for making the world go round.
2
It's the language behind many tools we take for granted, like the Windows, Linux, and Mac operating system kernels, databases like MySQL, interpreters for languages like
3
Python, tools like Vim and Git, and countless others.
4
It was created in 1972 by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs, where it would be used to develop the Unix operating system.
5
It would go on to become the mother of all languages, inspiring the syntax of C++, C Sharp, Java, JavaScript, Perl,
6
and PHP, just to name a few.
7
It compiles directly to machine code and requires minimal runtime support,
8
but is platform -dependent, meaning the executable is designed to run on a specific operating system.
9
It's a high -level language designed for humans, yet provides low -level control over memory and hardware.
10
There's no garbage collector.
11
Instead, your code needs to manage its own memory.
12
When you create a variable, it's assigned an address in memory.
13
You can store that address in another variable called a pointer.
14
When the variable is no longer needed, you'll need to free it to avoid memory leaks.
15
To get started, install a C compiler.
16
A popular choice is the GNU C compiler, or GCC.
17
Create a file ending in .c, include any libraries you plan to use, then add a main function to it.
18
This is where your program will start executing.
19
There's no function keyword, and notice how it returns an integer type.
20
A return value of 0 means success, while a return value of 1 means failure.
21
There are only a few basic types in C.
22
Create a variable by starting with a type, followed by a name and value.
23
Use printf to print the value to the standard output, or put an ampersand in front of it to reference its address in memory.
24
There's no string type, but instead char, which represents a 1 -byte character stored as an integer.
25
A string can be created with an array of characters.
26
Each letter will have its own memory address and be terminated by a null character.
27
Another approach is to start with a pointer by adding a star character in front of the type, then we can allocate 4 bytes to it.
28
Now assign a character to each index, ending with the null character to create a string.
29
When you no longer need that memory allocated to your program, use free to release it back to the computer's RAM.
30
The language is procedural and does not support object -oriented features, although you can create your own complex data types using structs.
31
Now compile your code to machine instructions for your operating system using the C compiler.
32
This has been the C programming language in 100 seconds.

Woordenschat en spreektips bij deze les
Deze spreekles is gebaseerd op de video “C in 100 Seconds”. Deze woorden komen het vaakst terug: memory, language, character, type, create. Deze video bevat 34 zinnen en 487 woorden om na te spreken. Het gesproken deel duurt 2:25. De spreker praat snel, ongeveer 202 woorden per minuut, dus reken op verbonden en ingeslikte klanken. Slechts 77% van de woorden hoort bij de 3.000 meest gebruikte Engelse woorden, dus de woordenschat is pittig.

- /w/ — met ronde lippen: hardware /ˈhɑɹdˌwɛɹ/, keyword /ˈkiː.wɜːd/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Begin op 0,75× snelheid, spreek zin voor zin na en ga terug naar normale snelheid zodra het makkelijk gaat.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als variable, string, assign.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
