But if simply typing on the keyboard doesn’t seems cool enough and you
need some fun part to stick to it, there’s a lot for you.
** Below is a list of websites that offer interactive online coding interface and
practice problems.
Coding
Code School
After you finished courses in Codecademy or Code Avengers, and you
are ready to further expand your capabilities, Code School is the next
quality website you should land on. Unlike most interactive learning
sites, Code School offers morein-depth courses to train and turn you
into an expert with the industry’s best practices.
Overall, the courses are categorized into 4 main paths, and they
are:Ruby, JavaScript, HTML/CSS and iOS
Almost all courses are aggressively polished with impressive design and
informative screencasts, though the challenges after the screencast
might bit a bit hard for amateurs. Luckily, there are hints and answers
to refer to. Whilemost of the offered courses are free, certain ones will
require you to spend$25/month to access the entire course including
all screencasts and challenges, and also all other courses in Code
School.
You will be given a screencast from pros discussing the topics and
instructions, then you will take either logic or programming quizzes to
strengthen your understanding or forge it into a skill. The good thing
about Udacity is it provides more videos than any other site, and the
instructors are either real-life professors or industry veterans.
The only pitfall here is most courses are not much related to each other,
so Udacity is probably not your starting point, but a virtual university to
further your study.
CodeHS At this point all websites you read here are mainly dedicated
to web development and computer science, but CodeHS is one with
simple and fun game programming lessons that involve problem
solving, JavaScript, animation, data structures, game design and puzzle
challenges.
You can first join the Programming Basics course to watch and learn
basic concepts, then explore the given code after the video tutorial to
validate your doubts. With Khan Academy, you can save your
modification as a Spin-Off for everyone to enjoy and customize. There
have been hundreds of spin-offs just from one lesson in one course, so
imagine the community size, and the lesson’s effectiveness.
Scratch 2.0 Think CodeHS and Khan Academy are still too hardcore
for your child, who has no comprehension beyond basic English? No
worries, there is something even easier for your aspiring next-gen
programmer, and it’s called Scratch. Previously an offline software that
allow kids to create, upload and share their projects proudly, Scratch is
now fully online with its 2.0 successor.

Why to learn C Programming?

Before discussing how to learn C, let us find out, why to learn C. If you want
become a good programmer, having a good command over C language is
essential. C language is the mother of so many modern languages and scripts.
Knowledge in C acts as fundamental to learn these modern languages and
scripts.
Also note that C programming is the most fascinating and creative job. It is a fine
art first and technology later. C Programming is also highly satisfying and
rewarding job for the people who like it. Software industry is always short of
good quality programmers and always in search of them. So why don't you
become such quality programmer.
The best way to learn C is to have access to Linux machine. Linux (or Unix) is the
best platform to learn C. Learning C with any other operating system is a
compromise.
If you really want to become a good programmer, the best investment you can
do is,buying some computer and loading Linux OS on it. Netbook (small laptops)
are enough as they cost less. Even if you do not have any computer, no problem.
Put Linux OS on your pen-drive. Carry it with you. Boot your friend's computer
with this pen-drive. Again you got Linux OS infront of you. Now what ever
programs you have written will get saved in your pen-drive. Shutdown the Linux
OS, take your pen-drive, leaving your friend's comptuer unchanged. So you are
carrying Linux OS and your C programs on your pen-drive.
Levels in Learning C
C language can be learned at various levels. At higher levels one can attempt
more complex programs.
Level 1

Also practice the usage of all arithmetic operators, logical operators, conditional
operators and bit wise operators.

Get the Kernighan & Ritchie book, it really is the C programmers' bible. Then
write a program that prints your name. Make it print your name 20 times. Make
it ask your name before printing it.
1. Depending on the OS that you are using get a C compiler with IDE. If
you are using Windows you can use Dev-CPP to begin with. You can
also use Visual Studio Community (this one is my personal favourite).
Visual Studio is a good IDE with support for many other programming
languages.
2. Start with a tutorial. You can pick on on line courses or choose a book.
You will find solved examples and some do it yourself exercise. Re write
the solved examples yourself again. You can not learn to code by reading
the examples - write them yourself. Even though you will just be
following the instructions in the tutorial you will get familiar with the
functions variables and other relevant things related to programming.
3. Try out the Do it yourself exercises. Do not google for the solutions right
away. Try to solve them yourself.

5. Understand the algorithms, start implementing them in code yourself.
Most algorithms will already be implemented if you Google them but
this will defeat the purpose. Try yourself. You may fail to get the
desired output at the first go or may get an output which works only a
small set of input. Start making small changes to the code that you have
just written, did it make it better? or worse? how would you know? what
would you measure? is it giving the desired output for all valid inputs ?
and invalid inputs being handled ? can it run faster ? is there another
logic that will solve the same problem ? and so on.
