Programming Research Group - University of Amsterdam - TR P0002 A First Course on C Program Reading Jan A. Bergstra Inge Bethke M. E. Loots For a subset of the programming notation C a number of example programs is given together with some input-output pairs. The family of programs with input-output pairs constitutes an emperical semantics project report. It can be used to reach the computational intuition competence specific to C programming. This competence is analyzed in some detail before the examples are listed. The computational intuition competence can be developed and assessed without any use of computers, as a purely cognitive matter.
