Problem Solving and Programming in C Srinivasa Rao Mekala

The study of 'Problem solving and Programming in C' is fundamental to computer science and engineering. This is essential for us to develop computer programs that utilize computer resources in an effective manner. The practical orientation of this book is due, so my tendency is to design things from an engineering point of view, always balancing the ideals of theory with the reality of practice. The engineer in me has always been eager to understand the trade-offs involved in using one approach over another. Problem solving and Programming in C has been developed for use in programs that cover this material in a unified course as well as in programs that spread out over two or more courses. This book is written primarily for freshmen students taking up their first course in programming, but people who are interested in learning C are also welcome to study it. Its aim is to supplement classroom lectures by focusing on C programming. Topics are arranged based on the order of class discussion. The book has been designed to be useful to both those programmers with little C experience as well as those new to the programming.
