This one is labeled no. 17, and I think moment has come when I can proudly say we have crossed a half-way of my complete C Tutorial; at least first part of it, “C Programming In General”. This Lesson is about Pointers and their useful implementation in Your future C programs. Let’s start…

This is the first lesson I wrote. Its purpose is to introduce you to the world of programming, showing you the way computers think or archive data. Please be patient and read through the whole lesson carefully in order to fully understand showed examples and calculations. I understand you can't wait to start using the code, but believe me these general foundations are somehow necessary to fully understand next tutorials and lessons I'll provide you with.

Functions are a must for modern object oriented programming and for visual programs as well. When you click a button on your mouse an event is generated. This event fires a function that is linked to that particular event. Therefore, you need to define several functions that correspond to various actions your code should perform. They are also useful when you need to call a block of code many times in different parts of your program.

If statements, and some boolean information.

A really small tutorial introducing the 'for' loop, good for C++ newbies and programming beginners.
