📂 File Descriptions

🔵 Core C Files

File	Description	Key Concepts
C.c	General-purpose C practice file covering basic language constructs	Variables, data types, input/output, operators
CS1.c	Introductory CS1-level exercises — the kind typically assigned in first-semester programming courses	Conditionals, basic loops, formatted output
Cnotes.c	Annotated code that doubles as study notes — code with comments explaining each construct as it is introduced	Syntax reference, inline documentation
main.c	Entry-point template and driver code; useful as a starting skeleton for new C programs	main() structure, return values, basic I/O
instructions.c	Step-by-step instructional code walking through a concept or problem in a guided, tutorial style	Structured problem-solving, beginner walkthroughs
test.c	Scratch/sandbox file for quick experiments and trying out ideas	Miscellaneous testing, prototyping

📅 Logic & Real-World Programs

File	Description	Key Concepts
Day.c	Determines the day of the week or performs day-based calendar calculations	Modular arithmetic, switch-case, date logic
months.c	Displays month names, days in each month, or performs month-based calendar logic	Arrays, switch-case, conditionals
Voting.c	Simulates a basic voting system — accepts votes for candidates and announces a winner	Arrays, loops, comparison logic, input validation
bignumber.c	Performs arithmetic (addition, multiplication, etc.) on very large integers that exceed standard data type limits	Arrays as digit stores, carry logic, string manipulation

🔢 Algorithms & Math

File	Description	Key Concepts
primenumbw2.c	Checks whether numbers are prime and prints prime numbers within a range	Loops, modulus operator, optimized trial division

🎨 Pattern Printing

File	Description	Key Concepts
star.c	Prints various star (*) patterns such as triangles, pyramids, diamonds, and more	Nested loops, loop control, spacing logic
swastik.c	Draws a swastik (an ancient symmetric symbol) using characters on the console	Coordinate logic, nested loops, conditional printing

🟡 C++ Files

File	Description	Key Concepts
Fp.cpp	Demonstrates the use of function pointers and/or file pointers in C++	fstream, function pointers, C++ I/O
c++/	Folder containing additional C++ programs and examples	OOP basics, classes, C++ syntax

📁 Folders

Folder	Description
Demos/	Demo programs used for walkthroughs, classroom examples, or quick feature showcases
c++/	C++ specific programs and exercises beyond the root-level .cpp files

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

Make sure you have a C/C++ compiler installed:

gcc --version   # for C files
g++ --version   # for C++ files

If not installed (Ubuntu/Debian):

sudo apt update && sudo apt install build-essential

Compiling & Running

For .c files:

gcc filename.c -o output && ./output

For .cpp files:

g++ filename.cpp -o output && ./output

Examples:

gcc star.c -o star && ./star
gcc primenumbw2.c -o primes && ./primes
gcc Voting.c -o voting && ./voting
g++ Fp.cpp -o fp && ./fp
