== Part 1 ==

Due to my ignorance I did not know that I required 4 separate entries I apologize this wont happen again.

	I have been taking classes in not only this class but also Joes discrete structures class. 
This has caused me to learn a lot about c programming in the past month. The second day of class we 
had to learn how to recreate string.h due to situations such as these I have learned a lot about 
strings in c programming and a good amount about arrays. Right now I am dealing with some confusion
 on the implementation of linklist. I fully understand how they work but I am confused as how to 
actually include them and manipulate them in my programs. The challenges I face with this course 
are pretty trivial in retrospect this pas month has been a pretty bad month personally so I was 
thrown behind in all of my classes. But now that things have settled down I plan on improving myself in all my classes



== Topics ==


Array
An array is a series of elements of the same type placed in contiguous memory locations that can be individually referenced by adding an index to a unique identifier.

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int samArray[52]  //this would declare a simple 52 elemnt array or the type 					int
    return(0);
}


=== 
String ===

C does not have a string type as other modern programming languages. C only has character type so a C string is defined as an array of characters or a pointer to characters.
#include <stdio.h>
 
int main()
{
    Char array[50] 	//this will create a 50 character array that the user or the programer can insert a string into
    return(0);
}


 ==== 
 Variable ====
 
 A variable is a way of referring to a memory location used in a computer program. This memory location holds values- perhaps numbers or text or more complicated types of data like a payroll record. 
 Pointer
 A pointer is a special kind of variable in C and C++ that holds the address of another variable. 
 
 
 
 ===== I/O =====
 
 I/O is an abbreviation of Input / Output and refers to the transfer of data to or from an application. 
 There are three standard libraries for I/O in C (STDIO, STDOUT, STDERR)
 
 
 
 ====== Header ======
 
The header file is used to access the standard library of functions and personalized functions that you or other programmers have created.


 ====== 
 Multi-dimensional arrays ======
  
 the same as a regular array with the exception that instead of storing one type of variable multiple variables are stored
 
 
 ====== 
 The C Library ======
 
 The C library holds full source code from example articles, reader submitted code and any code that is in the public domain
 
 
 ====== 
 Command-line arguments ======
 
Functions that require you to enter arguments from the command line
 
 ====== 
 logic and operators (and, or, not, xor) ======
 
 Aids in the helping of comparing values and situations where more than two things need to be compared
 
 
 ====== 
 Scope ======
 
 Scope refers to identifiers, that is types, functions, classes and variables and is that part of the source code where the particular idntifier is visible. 
 
 
 ====== 
 File Access ======

 The ability to read, write or execute a file based on what permissions you have

1.What would happen in a program that counted the number of characters in a string if you entered 2 separate string in the same line.

I believe that the program will only grab the characters until the null terminator

{{:user:csteve16:cprog:count_program.png?200|}}

{{:user:csteve16:cprog:count_run.png?200|}}

The null terminator stops scan f from continuing on in the array



2.What would happen if you were to insert an integer value into a program that expects a string value?

I beilive that it will still treat the numbers as a character and treat them as such

{{:user:csteve16:cprog:count_run_num.png?200|}}

The characters where counted as characters instead of numbers meaning that with a few adjustments you could convert this count program into a base 10 number converter
