IA-2 syllabus for PSPC is as follows: Decision Making and Looping (refer chapter-6 from text book ) while, do-while, for loops Programs on loops Nesting of loops Programs on nesting of loops Arrays [1D arrays ONLY](refer chapter-7 from text book ) One-dimensional arrays - int, float & double arrays Programs on 1-D arrays

Please find the below link that contains C problem definitions on arrays and strings. Click here: PSPC Lab Programs Week - 8 & 9 These programs are to be executed on or before 21/04/2018 (Saturday) .

Please go through the following points regarding conduction of PSPC lab IA-1 and guidelines to be followed during lab IA-1: PSPC Lab IA-1 will be conducted in REGULAR labs slots during the week 19/03/2018 to 24/03/2018 . F2 batch shall have lab IA-1 on 20/03/2018 (Tuesday) from 2:30 - 5:00 P.M. F1 batch shall have lab IA-1 on 21/03/2018 (Wednesday) from 8:00 - 10:30 A.M. Lab IA-1 will be an open book test , i.e., students can bring the text book ( "Programming in ANSI C" by E. Balagurusamy ) to the lab and can refer it during the lab IA-1. Only one problem definition  shall be given the students during the lab IA-1 & all the students of that batch should work on the same problem definition. Lab IA-1 tests the deep understanding of C features, syntax and semantics. It also tests the problem solving ability of each student. Students are not allowed to carry Mobile Phones, Calculators and Observation Book to the lab during lab IA-1. If any student is found po

As a part of CTA evaluation for PSPC Theory Course, online PSPC Quiz-1 is scheduled on 14/03/2018 (Wednesday) from 2:30 PM onwards . Please use this link to take the quiz: PSPC Online Quiz-1 Please note the following: This online quiz is prepared using Google Forms . Please note that you can attempt the quiz from hostel/home/college premises You can use your smart phone/laptop/desktop systems for taking the  quiz I nternet connection is required to take the quiz It is preferable to use  Google Chrome Browser   (recent version recommended) to attempt the   quiz If you are using any other browsers then quiz questions might not appear properly The   quiz  will be enabled at sharp 2:30 PM  on Wednesday (14/03/2018)  and  will be disabled at sharp 3:30 PM Hence it is important to   submit the  quiz  on or before 3:30 PM  to avoid any problems If you fail to submit the quiz on or before 3:30 PM, then your attempt is not recorded in the database and it will

The following Rubrics sheet shall be used for evaluating the selected C programs during the lab. Click Here for Rubrics sheet for PSPC Lab Proper maintenance of the Observation Book carries weightage of 10 pts . Selected programs will be evaluated individually against each student based on the criteria mentioned in the Rubrics Sheet. Points scored for each programs will be considered while allocating CIE [50 marks] for PSPC Lab. This sheet will be updated as and when new programs are practised in the regular labs.

Dea r Stude nts, Following is the IA-1 syllabus for PSPC Course: Fundamentals of C Programming Language   - refer   chapters-1, 2 & 3   from ANSI C text book Control Structures - if statement and its different forms   - refer   chapter-5   from ANSI C text book You need to also refer the programs and concepts discussed during regular classes/ labs. Spoken Tutorial videos can be used to quickly revise C concepts.. Contents not part of IA-1: Loops Switch statement Storage specifiers Bit-wise operators Algorithms and Flow charts Ternary operator Scope of variables Let me know if you have any doubts. All the best for IA-1!!!!

Programs mentioned in the link are to be executed in the lab sessions to be held from 20/02/2018 to 10/03/2018 .  Please find the link here:  Lab Programs list Weeks - 5 & 6 These are numerical mathematics based problem definitions, that make the student understand: principle of loops working of loops the flow of execution of loops how to solve a problem using loops nesting of loops

Programs mentioned in the link are to be executed in the lab sessions for week-4. Please find the link here:  Lab Programs list Week-4

Dear Students, As informed in the class, I will play videos of C programming available on  spoken tutorial  website. Please refer the following schedule:

As you are aware that, this semester, I shall cover C programming through hands-on approach ONLY .  I shall be covering C concepts like, Variables, Data Types, Tokens, Keywords, Statements, Loops, Arrays, etc, (indirectly) with the help of a real-world scenario ( Students Grading System ). Hence to understand the usage of C features in general, you must refer the text book " Programming in ANSI C" - by E.Balagurusamy (editions 4 and above). Currently you can read the chapters-1, 2, 3 & 5 from the text book (let me know if you get any doubts). You can also watch the videos available in  Spoken Tutorial  website on C course.  Each video ( not more than 20 mins ) precisely covers a specific topic on C.  You can watch to these videos during your free time. (As of now) you can watch the following videos: First C Program C Tokens Scope of Variables If-else statement Nested if and switch statement Arithmetic Operators Increment and Decrement Operators Re
