Detailed Syllabus of Advance C Programming

MODULE-I:
Advanced Concepts of Pointers and Memory Management

Overview of Advanced Pointers:


Multi-level pointers, pointer to arrays, pointer to strings, constant and void pointers.
Dynamic Memory Allocation:
Introduction to heap memory, malloc, calloc, realloc, and free functions.
Function Pointers:
Callback mechanisms, pointers to functions, and passing functions as arguments.
Memory Debugging:
Detecting memory leaks using tools like Valgrind.

MODULE-II:
File Handling and Advanced I/O

File Operations:
Text and binary file handling; modes (r, w, a, rb, etc.).
Advanced Input/Output:
Usage of fgets, fputs, fprintf, fscanf, and direct byte access with fread, fwrite.
Error Handling:
Error codes (errno) and their usage in file I/O.
Random Access:
File pointers, ftell, fseek, rewind, and working with large files.

MODULE-III:
Complex Data Structures in C

Dynamic Data Structures:


Linked lists (singly, doubly, and circular); stacks and queues.
Tree Data Structures:
Binary trees, binary search trees, AVL trees, and traversal algorithms.
Graph Data Structures:
Representations (adjacency matrix/list), depth-first search (DFS), and breadth-first search
(BFS).
Hashing:
Hash tables, collision resolution methods like chaining and open addressing.
MODULE-IV:
Multithreading and System-Level Programming

Thread Basics:
Creating and managing threads using POSIX threads (pthreads).
Synchronization Mechanisms:
Mutexes, semaphores, and avoiding deadlocks.
System Calls in C:
fork, exec, wait, signals, and inter-process communication (pipes).
Multithreaded Programming:
Implementing producer-consumer problems and thread pools.

MODULE-V:
Advanced Applications and Optimizations

C Preprocessor and Macros:


Macro definitions, conditional compilation, and predefined macros (__FILE__, __LINE__).
Networking in C:
Introduction to socket programming, implementing simple TCP/UDP client-server models.
Debugging and Profiling:
Debugging tools (gdb, ddd) and profiling tools (gprof).
Real-World Applications:
Implementing a custom memory allocator, creating a mini shell, and developing a
multithreaded downloader.
