C (pronounced "See", like the letter C) is a general-purpose computer programming language created by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Telephone Laboratories between 1969 and 1973 for use with the UNIX operating system operating system. Its architecture enables structures that translate efficiently to conventional machine instructions, and as a result, it has found long-term use in applications previously developed in assembly language.
It is a very efficient procedural programming language emphasizing functions, whereas newer object-oriented programming languages tend to emphasize data.
The C programming language was built on the older programming languages B, BCPL, and CPL.
The C language and its optional library are standardized as ISO/IEC 9899, with the most recent version being ISO/IEC 9899:2018. (C17).
N2176 is a free draft version.
