History the C langauage
lets see the history of C language in points :
- C language was developed in Bell labs in between 60s and 70s by Dennie Richard.
- In these days (in 1967) B language and BCPL (Basic combined programming language) were developed in the Bell labs.
- Both B and BCPL (Basic combined programming language) languages were used to create compiler as well as early version of unix, because these were so much powerful.
- But these both are typeless languages (There no data type,the the type are get the memory is a word) this was the drawback which urge the developers to do something.
- To over come this problem Dennie Richard developed the language by combining the B and BCPL (Basic combined programming language) languages, which has different data types.This is called C language.
- C language is a general purpose high level language.
- Soon C language was being used to write the compiler and Unix os.
- Different universities developed their own C languages by amendments.
- In 1983 a technical committee was created under the ANCI (American national standard committee for computer and information ) to standardize the C language and its version.
- In 1989 (After 5 years) a standard version is approved . ANSI (American national standard committee for computer and information ) and ISO (international standard organization) work to standardized C language worldwide.
