he C programming language is a general-purpose, high-level language that was
originally developed by Dennis M. Ritchie to develop the UNIX operating system at Bell
Labs. C was originally first implemented on the DEC PDP-11 computer in 1972.
In 1978, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie produced the first publicly available

The UNIX operating system, the C compiler, and essentially all UNIX applications programs
have been written in C. The C has now become a widely used professional language for
various reasons.
