C
e> A programming language designed by ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Dennis Ritchie">Dennis Ritchie at ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=AT&T">AT&T ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Bell Labs">Bell Labs ca. 1972 for systems programming on the ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=PDP-11">PDP-11 and immediately used to reimplement ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Unix">Unix. It was called "C" because many features derived from an earlier compiler named "ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=B">B". In fact, C was briefly named "NB". B was itself strongly influenced by ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=BCPL">BCPL. Before ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Bjarne Stroustrup">Bjarne Stroustrup settled the question by designing ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=C++">C++, there was a humorous debate over whether C' s successor should be named "D" or "P" (following B and C in "BCPL"). C is terse, low-level and permissive. It has a {macro preprocessor}, {cpp}. Partly due to its distribution with ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Unix">Unix, C became immensely popular outside ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Bell Labs">Bell Labs after about 1980 and is now the dominant language in systems and ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=microcomputer">microcomputer applications programming. It has grown popular due to its simplicity, efficiency, and flexibility. C programs are often easily adapted to new environments. C is often described, with a mixture of fondness and disdain, as "a language that combines all the elegance and power of ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=assembly language">assembly language with all the readability and maintainability of assembly language". Ritchie' s original C, known as ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=K&R C">K&R C after Kernighan and Ritchie' s book, has been ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=standard">standardised (and simultaneously modified) as ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=ANSI C">ANSI C.
