CIS 265 - The C Programming Language

1. Identify the difference between the multiple C standards.
2. Write programs in C with various scope (local, global, and external).
3. Write programs in C with multi-dimensional arrays.
4. Write programs in C with pointers, and structs.
5. Write programs using several files.
6. Solve complex problems using C as the language for implementation.
