C language basic features:

High-level language: It combines the basic structure and statements of high-level languages with the practicality of low-level languages.

Structured language: The notable feature of a structured language is the separation of code and data, where different parts of the program are independent of each other except for necessary information exchange.

This structured approach allows for clear hierarchy in the program, making it easy to use, maintain, and debug. C language is provided to users in the form of functions, which can be easily called and have various loops and conditional statements to control the program flow, thus making the program fully structured.
