Apple says: Hi everyone that wonders into this tab. I'm just learning to use a Wiki so bare with me. *shameless plug for membership in BloomingLabs* You too could get a login to the wiki and edit here :)
I want to add some helpful hints to Janett's course and off the page tab in discussion seems the right area.
An interesting site that helped me yesterday is Learning C the Hard Way. In particular is helpful setup on Debian, Ubuntu, etc. run on the CLI (Command Line in a terminal window) will install what you need.
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
or for RedHat and other RPM based systems :
$ su -c "yum groupinstall development-tools"
Helpful option to get gcc to leave intermediate files laying around is --save-temps as in:
$ gcc --save-temps -o hello-world helloworld.c
programming C on Android
For busy people, another option for learning are a number of c/c++ programming apps for the Android phone and tablet.
One that I have used recommend is CppDroid
and for those with an interest in Arduino and a OTG USB in their Android is ArduinoDroid by the same author.
By the way, native c programming is discouraged on the Android platform, perhaps useful for intensive computational things but the added complexity of interfacing to Java weighs heavily against it.
