Note:
FA-TH represents an average of two class tests of 30 marks each conducted during the semester.
1. If a candidate is not securing minimum passing marks in FA-PR (Formative Assessment - Practical) of any course, then
the candidate shall be declared as 'Detained' in that semester.
2. If a candidate does not secure minimum passing marks in SLA (Self Learning Assessment) of any course, then the candidate shall
be declared as 'fail' and will have to repeat and resubmit SLA work.
3. Notional learning hours for the semester are (CL + LL + TL + SL) hrs. * 15 Weeks
4. 1 credit is equivalent to 30 Notional hours.
5. * Self-learning hours shall not be reflected in the Timetable.
6.* Self-learning includes micro-projects/assignments/other activities.

II. RATIONALE:
The C programming language is a general-purpose, operating system-agnostic, and procedural language that supports
structured programming. Numerous companies use C as a programming language for embedded systems development,
application development, and socket programming. C programming acts as a foundation for higher level programming
which includes problem solving, building logic, developing algorithms and flowcharts. All the concepts learned will assist
the student to grasp advanced languages at ease.

III. COURSE-LEVEL LEARNING OUTCOMES (CO'S)

Students will be able to achieve & demonstrate the following CO's on completion of course-based learning
CO1: Establish Strong foundation in building procedural programs with ‘C’ language tokens.
CO2: Develop C program involving branching and looping statements.
CO3: Implement programs using Arrays and Strings.
CO4: Write C program using predefined and user-defined functions.
CO5: Execute programs using pointers.
CO6: Create and Implement user -defined data types such as Structures.
