What I learned in IC2 — Linux terminal, commands I use every day and my first steps in C.
In the previous article we covered types and variables in C theory. Now it’s time to write real programs. In this article we build three programs from scratch using gedit and compile them with gcc in Fedora, the exact workflow you’ll use in every IC2 lab. Each program uses all the main types and shows…
Types and variables in C are the first real shock when you move from Python to C in IC2. In Python you wrote x = 5 and Python figured everything out. In C you have to declare the type, the size and the format specifier for every variable, and if you get any of them…
Basic Linux commands exercises are where the terminal stops feeling foreign. You’ve seen the theory and practiced navigating Fedora. Now it’s time to solve challenges on your own, with wildcards, paths, basic permissions and a final challenge that combines everything. These exercises are done directly in your Fedora terminal. Open it now and keep it…
In the previous article we covered the basic Linux commands you need for IC2. Now it’s time to actually use them. This article has three practical exercises you do directly in your Fedora terminal, no reading, just typing. By the end you’ll have built a complete working directory structure for IC2 and navigated your way…
Basic Linux commands are the first practical skill you need in IC2. You’ve set up Fedora in VirtualBox and understood what the terminal is, now it’s time to actually use it. This article covers the commands you’ll type every single day: navigating directories, creating folders, copying and moving files, and the ones that can delete…
