Extract
from Wikipedia - C programming language (pervious entry of wikipedia)
The
C programming language is a standardized imperative computer
programming language developed in the early 1970's by Ken Thompson and
Dennis Ritchie for use on the UNIX operating system. It has since
spread to many other operating systems, and is one of the most widely
used programming languages. C is prized for its efficiency, and is the
most popular programming language for writing system software, though
it is also used for writing applications. It is also commonly used in
computer science education, despite not being designed for novices. |
