About the Test

This test assesses a candidate’s ability to create applications, operating systems, games, graphics, and websites using the C programming language.

C is a general-purpose programming language. Some of the features of the c language include Simple, powerful, Compiler based Middle-level language, Portability, Ease of Extend, and many more. C is a structured language that is machine independent and is widely used by many operating systems like windows, Linux, mac, etc. The test covers the Library function, and C has 24 header files for the programmers to work with by default. In c, we use header files for every program we execute, and we assign the global variables when it has to be used throughout the program.

Some applications of c are game development, the Banking sector, Creating computer applications, and the first operating system, UNIX, also developed using the c language only. In c, we use header files for every program we execute, and we assign the global variables when it has to be used throughout the program.

Header Files

A header file is a file with the .h extension that contains declarations and macro definitions to be shared between several source files. These declarations and definitions allow you to use functions and variables that are defined in another source file, without having to include the entire source code in every file where you want to use them.

Function

In C programming, a library function is a function that is included in a library and is available for use in a C program. A library is a collection of pre-written functions that can be used in a C program to perform a variety of tasks, such as input/output, math operations, and string manipulation.

Expressions

An expression is a combination of variables, constants, and operators that evaluates to a single value. In C, expressions are used in various contexts, such as in assignment statements, in conditionals, and in loops.

Library Function

A library function is a function that is defined in a library and can be used in your C program by including the appropriate header file and linking the library with your program. The C standard library provides a wide range of functions for tasks such as input/output, string manipulation, math operations, and more.
