Computer Science: A Structured Programming

Approach Using C: Functions:



Author: Charles Hayes:


C is a general-purpose, block

structured, procedural, imperative

computer programming language developed

in 1972 by Dennis Ritchie at the Bell

Telephone Laboratories for use with the

Unix operating system. It has since spread

to many other platforms. Although predominantly

used for system software, C is also widely

used for applications. C has also greatly

influenced many other popular languages,

especially C++, which was designed as an

enhancement to C.
