Having completed the C class I feel I have a better understanding of one of the most used programming languages out there.

I wish I would have had more time to devote to C, since it is such a used platform. My program was a black jack program, which is fairly functional, but still needs work.

Some of the challenges I found in C was syntax, I was taking Visual Basic at the same same time and having 2 programming classes is a challenge in itself, make sure you study the syntax of each language, so as not to get confused. .

My advice to future students would be to think of programming like math, you must do some each day, because it builds upon itself. Sitting down once or twice a week and trying to work out a program or math problem will most likely not work. Give yourself some slack though, learning to program is a big challenge, I have been in several programming classes and still feel lost at times. Read as much as you can, in books, online wherever you find an opportunity to learn. Also don’t try to tackle a big fancy project, do something that will interest you and is within your skills.
