Learn C Programming and OOP with Dr. Chuck [feat. classic book by Kernighan and Ritchie]

In this complete C programming course, Dr. Charles Severance (aka Dr. Chuck) will help you understand computer architecture and low-level programming with the help of the classic C Programming language book written by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie. Toward the end Dr. Chuck interviews Guido van Rossum, the creator of Python.

(Unlock Code Hint: View the developer console on the website.)

✏️ Dr. Charles Severance developed this course. He is a professor at the University of Michigan.

I love Dr Chuck. He was the one that got me into programming 10 years ago. I owe my career to this wonderful human.

[calkelpdiver]

I'll just say this. I learned C back in 1986 in college and used this book by K&R, and I still have it (buried somewhere in a box). As a foundation for programming C is a good language to learn. C leads to C++ (begin OOP style programming) which leads to C# and Java which leads to other languages like Python.

So if you want to understand how to program at a low level on a Windows or Linux/Unix platform you need to understand C. Unix was built off of C. K&R were part of the team at Bell Labs New Jersey that created Unix and C in the 1970's / 1980's.

Dr. Chuck got me started programming with his py4e freeCodeCamp course way back. I'm so thrilled to have him again for an accompaniment to learning the C programming language.

Everything you offer on this channel is fascinating. I love you.

[visulino]

I have a copy of that book signed, he was my professor at Columbia University in the late 1990s.

Unbelievable that you can get a course like this for free. Thanks!

I stumbled across Dr Chuck a few weeks ago arbitrarily when I decided to study C. I began his course and right afterward found this in my feed. I enjoy this course, programming can be very emasculating at times and his relaxed approach helps ease the pressure, its easier to concentrate when you're relaxed. I can tell hes someone who knows what he's talking about and I can also tell he's ran into every pitfall we are about to trip over. I really am enjoying learning C and while only in chapter 2 of the book, I can already see where I'm going to be a better Python/Javascript developer when I'm finished. Thanx everyone who made this possible, this course is life changing.

This video literally could not have come at a better time for me! I'll be starting a course that teaches C this fall semester and I have been looking for something to give me a head start to the material.

[essentia]

This is what internet should be for. Thank you!

[PleinuCrellMadzou]

you are great people for what you are offering in this channel, just amazing

[mikediaz]

Dr. Severance.
Next level, C OOP.
Awesome Sir.
This is a refresher.

Thankyou So Much.

[gottahavegoalsset]

This is awesome information from someone involved.

[Srvtnc]

finally a video teaching C that's not 40 years old

[devon]

The Encapsulation and Abstraction part of this course is really interesting and amazing, thanks!

[chriskoivu]

The best programming book EVER WRITTEN

[jordanjackson]

33:00. Yeah as a dude, I’ve got to say. My majority of effective computer teachers were women. I was a 90’s kid. I did the Python course. And even got the Cert. Chuck is solid and worthy of his legendary status.

[iznasen]

Thank you, Dr. Chuck and @freecodecamp for this excellent video. I deeply appreciate the insights, references and clarity you provided. Much gratitude from Morocco!

[wewonbro]

Bro I’ve been wanting to learn c but didn’t know where to start and never did. Thank you for this! 🙏🏽

[dannybrown]

Right on time for me. Got a first head c book last week. Now this upload….Fantastic. Been wanting to learn C for a while now.
