Questions

Which syllabus does this Programming in C course follow?

It follows the common UP state university BCA syllabus (University of Lucknow pattern) for BCA Semester 2. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university's syllabus and unit order.

Is the C lab separate?

Yes. The C Programming Lab is a separate practical paper; this theory paper tests concepts and output-based questions.

Which compiler is used?

GCC (Code::Blocks or Dev-C++) at the centre; Turbo C examples are also explained because some colleges still use it.
