That has nothing to do with projects and/or industry jobs. C# and the .NET framework is pretty popular according to what I have seen, but python/Java is equally (or, even more) popular these days; especially python due to the data analysis jobs. Not trying to say that your suggestion is bad though.. just the fact that other languages are equally popular. There's no reason to think that C# /.NET is the only winner.because its closer to his original C idea

I wan to learn c programming how can i learn
C# and the .NET Framework would be better skills wise for solo projects or industry jobs
C. Not all this other off-topic nonsense you and mostly everyone else is talking about.
LOL!! You were the one being offtopic. Now that you have made it personal, check out my quotes (emphasis mine) above. He clearly asked how to learn C.
He did not ask for whether it should be better skill-wise.. LMAO
Also C != C# && C != .NET
Watch before you post...
As I was saying... OFFTOPIC!!I don't really want to get into a retard-off with you, but needless to say recommending C# over C was solid advice to a newbie. Most seasoned developers would say the same.
Your only purpose here is to try score points over me on an internet forum so you can feel better about yourself.
I recommended C# over C because its easier to learn, do solo projects or find workplace jobs - get over it lol.
Learn Javascript, the language of the future![]()
As I was saying... OFFTOPIC!!
Outta here now...![]()

Yepp I did mention that what he suggested wasn't wrong, but he chose to keep fighting over it@gtothem Is right, though. C may be great, especially if you want to challenge yourself as a beginner, but... OP more than likely just wants a job and easy things done. What's he gonna do? Write a compiler in C after 5-6 months of practice? That wouldn't help him at all. He's better off learning C# and creating desktop apps in 6 month-ish, then build a solid portfolio on Github. There's a certain reason why C developers are sometimes called wizards, not because they're actually wizards, but because they're grumpy old* bastards for the most part.
Yes, OP wants to learn C. But for the wrong reasons. You're correct that it's what OP wants to know, but he'll more than likely get disappointed really fast. There's a reason why so many developers came to be recently, it's because nowadays they can start off with easier languages which helps them move on to C later on. Back then it wasn't like that. You had to go through the hard stuff, whether you liked it or not.
* = exactly the reason they're hired. Unlike Python, Go or C#... you don't just learn C in a 2-3 months as a beginner. Same goes for Perl.

Btw, C is far from being dead or old or anything. It is pretty much needed in places where memory limit is pretty low.. e.g. let's say printer firmware.
Also, directly jumping over to .NET/C# might not be as easy, but I am not 100% certain about this as I started with C myself when I was young.
The guy isn't interested in the topic, hes only here to dig points on my assistance.
It's simple to assume he wants to create applications, probably desktop and compiled. Pretty straight forward to tell a newbie to look at C# over C. Would help him alot long term.
Then simply because he knows python/java is popular he questions me, gets a reasonable answer then goes into point scoring. I didn't really want to list how hes wrong because I can tell it would go 10 posts deep and he will still act high and mighty about it all.
if you want to learn javascript/ajax but not really intrested in it code you can use.
https://jquery.com
jquery very powerfull , it a bunch of commands and scripts done for you ,and it used globally on even commecial websites.
C is a small language with a small and well thought out standard library but its also a language that's damn near impossible to write correct C compliant code.I wan to learn c programming how can i learn
