Features of C

In Previous post we Learn History of C. In this Lesson we learn Features of C language.
C is widely used computer programming language. We can use C for different purpose. It provides lot features some are given below.

1. Simple
2. Machine Independent or Portable.
3. Mid-level programming language.
4.  structured programming language.
5. Rich Library.
6. Memory Management.
7. Fast Speed.
8. Pointers.
9. Recursion.
10. Extensible.

1)Simple: C is a simple language it provides Structured approach ,rich set library functions,datatypes, etc..

2)Machine Independent or Portable: Unlike assembly,c programs can be executed in many machines with little bit or no change.

3) Middle-Level programming language: c is also used to Low level programming. It also supports features of High level language.

4) Structured programming Language: c is a structured programming language in the sense that we can break the program into parts using functions.

5) Rich Library : c provides lot of inbuilt functions.

6) Memory Management: It supports features of Dynamic Memory Allocation.

7) Speed: The compilation and execution of c language is fast.

8)Pointer: c provides the feature of pointers. we can directly interact with memory by using pointers.

9) Recursion: In c we can call the function within the function.It provides recursion.

10) Extensible: c language is extensible because it easily adoptable new features.
