History of C


Here is the interesting history of C


C programming language was developed by Dennis Ritchie in 1972, at bell laboratories of AT&T(American Telephone and Telegraph) in USA.

C language was inherited by the features of previously programming languages like B and BCPL, and it overcomes the problems of that languages too.

C clearly reflects the existence of B and BCPL in it.

Initially, C was made for the UNIX operating system. But after that, it re-implemented UNIX kernel.

C became popular and because of that, it became standardized in 1989 by ANSI organization.

Today, it comes in the most used programming language in the world.
