The unlock code is a number.  You won't be given the number.  It is a puzzle
where you prove that you have the pre-requisite skills for this course.
You need to figure the number out yourself.  There are clues in this page
and the links from this page.
</p>
<p>
It is not too long and has none of those funny hex (abcde) characters.
It is a very significant number with that
makes a regular appearance throughout Dr. Chuck's other online courses
(<a href="https://www.py4e.com" target="_blank">Python</a>,
<a href="https://www.dj4e.com" target="_blank">Django</a>,
<a href="https://www.wa4e.com" target="_blank">PHP</a>, and
<a href="https://www.pg4e.com" target="_blank">PostgreSQL</a>).
</p>
<p>
If you get tired of trying to guess the number, you can take
a fun break and look at some cool pictures of
<a href="https://www.sakaiger.com/sakaicar/" target="_blank">Dr. Chuck's Race Car</a>.
It is pretty awesome and he races in a series called

<h1>C Programming for Everybody</h1>
This material is dedicated to understanding computer architecture and low-level programming
by studying the "classic" version of
the
C Programming language
from the 1978 book written by
<a href="https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~bwk/" target="_blank">
Brian W. Kernighan
</a>
and Dennis M. Ritchie.
In this course we will be reflecting on how C provided an important foundation for the creation of
modern programming languages.

</p>
You need to have a basic understanding of Python before starting this course.
The first lesson is a quick introduction to C by by leveraging your understanding of Python.
A suggested pre-requisite is:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.py4e.com" target="_blank">Python for Everybody</a></li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
The K&amp;R book places the reader in the middle of the 1970's transition from
a hardware-centered computer science to a focus on writing portable and efficient
software.  C was used to develop operating systems like Unix, Minix, and Linux and
programming languages like C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python.
You can no longer purchase the 1978 edition and should
instead purchase the second edition (1988) of
<a href="https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~bwk/cbook.html" target="_blank">
The C Programming Language</a>.
