                        History of C

Hello friends,

                        This is Yachna here.Welcome to my new  blog knowledge plus. so friends here I will give you knowledge about computer science related subjects. So first we will discuss basic of c programming.

As we know that c language is the coding language . Here question arise that from where c language comes?

I want to tell you that c language was developed in AT&T BELL LABORATORY by Dennis rich in 1972.
C language replaced languages like Fortran,Pascal,Cobol.
C language also known as mother language of many other languages like C++ etc.
It is powerful , efficient,and compact language .

Characteristics of c:-

1 C has easier syntax then Fortran,Cobol,etc.

2 It is reliable simple and easy to use.

3 Program written in c are efficient and fast this is due to its variety of data type and powerful operators.

4 It is highly suitable for 

recurrsive programming.

5 C language is highly portable language this means if you have a created C
program on one computers without any modification.
6 It is very well suited for structured programming the programmers can easily divide a problem.
7 C has got a rich set of library functions these functions provide readymade functionalities to the users.
8 C has a support for graphics programming.
9 It is format free language no line nos. are needed.
10 Need not place statements on a specifications location on a line.

I hope you understand these all.In next blog i will tell u about the structure of C language In which we will discuss what is the structure of c language codes.

Thanking you.
