Basic Programs logic Every Programmer Should Remember-min
Introduction
Basic Programs Generally speaking, in order to call your software developer or software engineer, you need to start learning what the basic software development needs and what the coding is.
Which means you need to start programming for sure first!
You can now go and learn about data structures and algorithms after you are able to understand and solve basic programming problems such as addition, subraction etc. using computer programming.
Many Fresher Programmer usually ask me : –
Should I need to learn Basic Program/ Algorithms for Programming?
Let’s get some things straight. ‘Yes’ you should need to learn Basic Algorithms, Programming is all about applying logic and reason to solving programming problems.
An algorithm represents your solution to a programming problem or Application Development.
Basic Program/Algorithms Every Programmer Must Should Know to improve programming logics.
basic programs every programmer show know
The algorithm is not the code of the computer. Algorithm is just the instructions that give you a clear idea to write computer code.
Examples Of An Basic Program / Algorithms In C Programming.

Program Explanation
1. Read 3 numbers and store it in the variables a, b and c respectively.
2. Check out step 4 We check if the a is greater than b.
3. If it is greater, then check a if it is greater than c.
4. If it is, then print the output as “a is the greatest among three”.
5. Otherwise print the ouput as “c is the greatest among three”.
6. If the a is not greater than b, then check if b is greater than c.
7. If it is, then print the output as “b is the greatest among three”.
8. Otherwise print the output as “c is the greatest among three”.

4. Program to find factorial of a number
Factorial program in C programming language: Factorial is represented using ‘!’, so five factorial will be written as (5!), n factorial as (n!). Also,
n! = n*(n-1)*(n-2)*(n-3)…3.2.1
i.e 5*4*3*2*1
zero factorial is defined as one i.e., 0! = 1.

5 . Program for Fibonacci Series in C
In case of fibonacci series, For example 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21 etc.
The first two numbers of fibonacci series are 0 and 1
next number is the sum of previous two numbers.
.Here 0+1 = 1 which is the third number, as we continue 1+1 = 2 which is forth number, and 1+2=3 and so on
