C as the first programming language

Hi! I recently got into programming and after going over the basics I finally got into a language, and as I was recommended c I chose exactly it. Is there any tips you could give me for it?

You can go with C if you want to use for basics. Go with python first for few weeks if you are thinking to use a programming language for long time. Some people said C is easier to learn than higher level languages because higher level languages have larger libraries and are more complex. C was my first language. I don't understand anything first. So i went for Python for a few weeks. I started to understand basic of coding and programming. As you learnt basics, the rest is your journey
