Glib C manual-1. Introduction

1.1. Getting Started
1.1. Getting Started
 
This manual is written with the assumption that you are at least somewhat familiar with the C programming language and basic programming concepts. specifically, familiarity with ISO Standard C (see iso c), rather than "traditional" pre-Iso c dialects, is assumed.
When writing this manual, assume that you are at least familiar with C to become a language and basic programming concepts, especially ISO Standard C (see: 1.2.1 Iso c ), instead of the traditional pre-Iso c dialect.

The gnu c Library provides des several header files, each of which provides definitions and declarations for a group of related facilities; this information is used by the C compiler when processing your program. for example, the header file stdio. h declares facilities
For faster input and output, and the header file string. h declares string processing utilities. The organization of this manual generally follows the same division as the header files.
The gnu c library contains many header files, each of which provides a set of function definitions and descriptions. The C compiler uses this information when processing your program. For example, the stdio. h header file describes the input and output functions, and the string. h header file describes the string processing functions. This manual is generally organized according to the division of labor in the header file.

If you are reading this manual for the first time, you should read all of the introductory material and skim the remaining chapters. there are a lot of functions in the gnu c library and It's not realistic to keep CT that you will be able to remember exactly
How to use each and every one of them. it's more important to become generally familiar with the kinds of facilities that the Library provides, so that when you are writing your programs you can recognize when to make use of library functions, and where in
This manual you can find more specific information about them.
If this is the first time you read this manual, you should read all the introduction materials and browse other chapters. The GNU Library has so many features that it is unrealistic for you to accurately remember the use of all of these features. More importantly, you are familiar with the types of functions provided by the database. Therefore, when you are writing a program, you can understand when to use these library functions, find detailed information about these features from the manual.
