Exploring the Challenges of Learning C as a Beginner in Computer Science

[JesseH]

Hi, I'm a computer science student currently working on my bachelors degree as well as an associates degree in web development. I have recently been trying to take on the C language but it's not going so well. I hope to gain a better understanding of all the programming languages as I progress. I look forward to being a part of this community. Thank you.

Welcome to the forum :). C can be a little tedious at times yes.

Yes, It has been very much so for me. I am a beginner and have been given the task of multi-threading...Yeah, I'm not so great at it. Thank you for the reply. :)

No worries, is it the first language you are learning? Or have you learned higher level languages prior to this?

I started with Alice, and Python. This semester I got a dose of Assembly and C. I also have learned HTML and a little Java script.

Cool. I've always thought C would have been much harder for me if i'd started with higher level languages... Still, I'm no expert, but I can definitely appreciate higher level languages a lot more if you've started with C.

Good luck!
