I am a C programmer. Although I wouldn't have ever learned much from this, it is nice to see something not Batch. P.S. Is it possible to tell an autorun.inf file to run a C program?

Yes, but I believe that is only an editor. You would need to find a compiler too, such as the open source GCC compiler, try http://www.mingw.org/ or just google "gcc for windows".

I think that these days I'm inclined to recommend something like Processing to people who want to learn C. This is an "environment" with C underneath, but with major features implemented as a sort of "subset" so that you don't have to worry about quite as much. Also, it includes libraries of functions aimed at allowing relatively non-technical people to do fancy things (graphics...) (In the "microcontroller" space, Wiring and Arduino do the same thing (and in fact are based on the same core environment, I believe.))

It would have been nice if you had included some information explaining what each part of the code does. Such as '#include' being used to include an external header file. 'int main' is the body of the program etc I can't confess to knowing much C, which is why even the most basic of knowledge would be of use. Well done on your first Instructable through, nice to see something other than Batch :]
