Hello,
.
Look, C Language is not at all suggested to take a start with. There will be a process of learning programming languages. And C is not at all suggested by any of the institute/coaching classes as a basic learning.
.
C Language and C++ are 2 complicated languages, you can't even understand if you take them as basic learner, They are much complicated.
.
Now why is it more important?, nope it's not important, now C language is just a need, there was a time when the generation was developing and C was used. Now it's totally different, python is the language which is most famous and easiest language to learn.
.
C is useful and famous but most complicated and difficult Language to learn. So C is not suggested for basic learners.C is used in the development of kernels of os
.
Each language has its own benefits and uses. Like,

• C Language is used to bring down complications
• Python has wide range of applications starting from web development and to gaming
• HTML is not a programming languages but the easiest language to learn which is used to develop web designing

.
Most popular languages used now a days and has a very good scope in future are;

• Python
• JavaScript
• C

Hello student ,

As C is one of the oldest programming languages, but still very popular. Many Tech giants like; Microsoft, Google, and Apple hire C programmers.

Learn ing “C” will clear all your basics about how a program work. It is also very easy to learn and plenty of free resources are available online. If you like reading books, start with “Let Us C“.

As “C” is very strict about its syntaxes, it will be very easy for you to opt for other languages after learning “C”.

Hope this will help you !
