C Basics: Statements and Functions
David Mark, James Bucanek · Apress eBooks · 2012
Every programming language is designed to follow strict rules that define the language’s source code structure. The C programming language is no different. These next few chapters will explore the syntax of C. This chapter focuses on two of the primary building blocks of C programming: statements and functions. In a nutshell, a statement tells the computer to do something. A function is a series of statements. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
