C11 Examples

Code examples from Sams Teach Yourself C Programming in One Hour a Day (Seventh Edition)

Covers ANSI C11 Standard.

C Examples

ANSI C examples from Sams Teach Yourself C Programming in One Hour a Day (Seventh Edition) by Bradley L. Jones, Peter Aitken, and Dean Miller.

Examples adapted for use with GCC, developed and tested on Mac OS X.

Some examples provided to further clarify my own understanding of how certain methods operate.

Installation

To make use of these examples, you'll need to install gcc and make.

Linux

sudo apt-get install gcc
sudo apt-get install make

Mac

brew install gcc
brew install make

Makefiles

A utility known as make automates the process of compiling your C code into an executable file. It is designed to simplify very complex compilation processes. I am using it here to simplify even the simple process of compiling these examples.

When a directory has a Makefile present, the make utility uses the configuration inside of the Makefile to perform certain tasks.

Tasks:

• make - Compiles the 'main' executable into machine code in the current directory
• make clean - Deletes the 'main' executable from the current directory

Unit Testing

Eventually I want to implement unit testing of C Code with GNU Auto-unit or C Unit
