Introductory C videos

Please see the "cintro" items in probex, a programming problem system. It contains short problem statements and a tester to see whether you completed the problem correctly. It also gives you URLs for associated videos. Unlike the shell programming videos, these videos are typically quite short.

For most of the introductory C videos, if you know some Java or some C you can generally just try the problems, and if you have difficulty with the problems then watch the associated videos.

However, I suggest watching part 2 video 4 whether you know much C or not, and certainly if you only know Java and not C.
