C Programming and UNIX

C probably has been the most influential programming language during the last 25 years. It was originally introduced for the implementation of UNIX, but is now used for a large variety of very different tasks. This note will introduce the C programming language in the context of the UNIX operating system. It will also cover UNIX from a user and a programmer perspective.
