What You'll Learn

  • Write production-quality, modular C code complying with modern C11/C17 standards and strict compiler warnings.
  • Manipulate memory directly using raw pointers, address-of operators, pointer arithmetic, and struct offsets safely.
  • Manage heap memory dynamically while preventing buffer overflows, use-after-free, and memory leaks using Valgrind.
  • Analyze and formally calculate the asymptotic time and space complexity (Big-O, Omega, Theta) of algorithms.
  • Debug segmented faults, memory corruption, and logical flaws systematically using the GNU Debugger (GDB).

Requirements

  • Foundational academic standing in computing or science.
