Programming in C is one of the long and Important Chapters for Class 12 NEB Computer, we divided it into 4 different sections as follows:
4.1 Functions:
4.1 A. Keywords:
Function: A function is a self-contained subprogram, which is meant to do some specific, well-defined task.
Function prototype: The function prototype provides the type of the value returned, the name of the function, and the number and the type of the arguments that must be supplied in a function call to the computer.
Function definition: A function definition has two principle components function header or function declaration and body of the function.
Function call: A function call is specified by the function name followed by the arguments enclosed in parenthesis and terminated by a semicolon.
Return Statements: Return keywords returns the program control from a function to the calling function.
Void statement: If a function does not return a value then we say that the function's return type is void.
Recursion: Recursion can be regarded as the ability of a function to define an object in terms of a simpler case of itself.
Library (built-in) function: C has the facility to provide some library functions to the programmer for doing some operations.
User-defined function: The user can also create functions for doing any specific task of the program. Such functions are called user-defined functions.

4.2 Structures and Unions:
4.2 A. Keywords:
Structure: Structure is defined as the collection of data items with different data types. It is just like recording in a database system. The struct keyword is used to declare the structure variable.
Member of structure: Each data item is called a member of the structure.
Tag of the structure: types of structure are defined by the tag of the structure.
Dot operator: A member of the Structure can be accessed by using the dot operator in between the structure variable and the member.
Typedef: It is a user-defined data type because a user can able to define his/her data type. We can able use typedef Keywords to define structure as user-defined variables.
Union: Union is similar to the structure but it differs in the storage location of its members and all the members can share a common memory location.
Nested Structure: A structure can be defined as a member of another structure called a nested structure.
Sizeof: The sizeof function helps us to determine the actual memory size of any type of variable even structure variable.

6. "Structure is called user-defined data type". Justify your answer with an example.
4.3 Pointer:
4.3 B. Keywords:
Pointer: A pointer is a variable that points to another variable which means it contains the memory address (location) of another variable and is declared as the pointer type.
Dynamic memory allocation: The pointer assigns the memory space and also releases it which makes the best use of the available memory during the running time of a program.
& and * operator: The '&' is the address operator, it represents the address of the variable, and the '*' operator is the value at the address operator.
Pointer Assignment: Pointer Assignment is a type of expression used to assign a value of one pointer to another using the assignment operator '='.
Call by value: In call by value, the values of the variables are passed. In this, the values of variables are not affected by changing the values of the formal parameter.
Call by reference: In call by reference, the address of the variable is passed. The contents of that address can be accessed freely, either within the function or within the calling routine.

Data file: A data file is a collection of data or information which is permanently stored inside secondary memory.
FILE: The keyword FILE is used to define the file data type and EOF is used to represent the end of the file.
fopen() / fclose(): fopen() is used to open or define data file and, fclose() is used to close data file.
Modes of FILE: Three popular modes of a file are:- w: write mode, r: read mode, and a: append mode.
File input/output functions: Popular file input/output functions are getc()/putc() for characters, getw()/putw() for integers, fscanf()/fprintf() for any formatted data type, and fread()/fwrite() for the structure data type.
File processing techniques: Two types of file processing techniques are used: sequential access and random access file processing techniques.
Sequential access technique: In the sequential access technique, the file is accessed serially from the beginning to the ending part of the file, whereas in the random access technique, data can be accessed from any part of the file.
remove()/rename(): The remove() function helps us to delete file and the rename() function helps us to rename the data file.
4.4 B. Short Answer Questions:
