There are tons of tutorials of programming language available on the Internet. But for beginner programmers, it is very important to choose a good start point to help them get basic ideas of programming in short time. In this case, C could be an excellent choice. Not only because it educates people the programming fundamentals but also C and C++ are such powerful programming language and thus they are widely used in the today’s industry.

Why people should begin their programming experience with C? There are some strong reason for that. Check out below:

• Easy to Lean – The code written by C language looks more secure to beginner programmer. You will feel confident about once you learn it step by step.
• OOP Feature – OOP stands for Object Oriented Programming. Actually in the early time, C is a kinda structure programming language which mean the code gets executed on by another, from top to bottom. But later on, C and C++ developed OOP feature. The code written in block and not related to the block next to it. This make code more powerful, easy to reuse. It also made programming easier.
• Basic Concept – As a beginner program, it is wise to choose C or C++ because through the C learning process, one will get solid understanding of programming fundamental. C is a language to help you build those basic concepts and establish programming structure in mind quickly. This process is essential for futures programming experience. And I think this explain why so many colleges choose C++ as pre-requirement if people want to take computer since as their major.
• Cross OS programming – As you probably knew, Unix(Linux) Operating System is mainly written in C language. So be familiar with C and C++ give people power to work on different OS have their program run on those Operating System.

Hopefully this article has convinced you if you are a beginner programmer, Otherwise, there are lot more reasons why a beginner should pick up C or C++ as first programming language. All you need to do is google them and keep reading.
