PRACTICE
Featured exercises.
Short problems with enough context to make the solution teach you something.
01
Audit a multi-file build
Given app.c, inventory.c, inventory.h, and Makefile, explain and write the dependency rules needed so changing inventory.h recompiles both relevant object files before linking.
Try the exercise 02Parse one CSV inventory record
Parse a simple inventory record in the form id,name,quantity into a struct. Reject missing fields, extra commas, an empty name, and a quantity outside 0..100000.
Try the exercise 03Push into a bounded ring queue
Implement queue_push for a fixed-capacity circular queue. Return 0 when the queue is full or invalid; otherwise store the value, advance tail with wraparound, and increase size.
Try the exercise 04Design a theme token system
Define semantic color tokens for a card and support a dark theme without repeating component declarations.
Try the exercise 05Respect reduced-motion preferences
Add an entrance transition for a notification panel, then make the experience calm and usable for visitors who request reduced motion.
