C Syntax

The small set of rules every C program follows.

Statements & blocks

Every statement ends with a semicolon ;. Blocks are wrapped in braces { }. Indentation is for humans — the compiler ignores it.

C is case-sensitive: count and Count differ.

// single-line comment
/* multi-line
   comment */
int count = 0;   // not the same as Count
