In this article, I'm gonna discuss the History of C Programming Language. Please read my previous article where we give a brief Introduction to C Programming Language. If you want to know History of C programming then please keep reading this article, because in this article I will share you some amazing facts of C programming as well.History of C Programming LanguageThe Programming Language term is started in the year 1950, with the Language called FORTRAN.From the FORTRAN language, another programming language is developed called ALGOL (Algorithmic Language). The beginning of C is started in the year 1968 with the language called BCPL (Basic Combined Programming Language). In the year 1970 BCPL, another programming language is developed by REN THOMPSON it is called B-Language (Basic Language). In the year of 1972, DENNIS RITCHIE developed C-Programming Language at AT&T BELL LABORATORIES (located in the U.S.A.) for developing system software. In the year of 1978, Ritchie and Kernighan released the next version of C-Language i.e. “K and R-C”. In the year 1980, ANSI (American National Standard Institute) released the next version of the C Language called “ANSI-C”. In the year 2000 ISO Standard C is released called “C 99”. On the 8th of Dec. 2011, the latest version of C is released with the name called “C 11”. In alphabetical order, only the name C-Language is given. Forgiving the name C++ there is a reason nothing but post features of C-Language.
