Abstract
C Programming Language, developed by Dennis Ritchie in 1972, is an evergreen programming language. It is the backbone of the Unix operating system and paved the way for the development of object-oriented programming. C has been around for 30 years, and there are many source codes available which means there is a lot to learn and a lot to use. C programming language is that which sits close to the operating system. This feature makes it an efficient language because system-level resources, such as memory, can be accessed easily. The features like fast, flexible, portable, and structured programming language with a rich library makes the C programming language not to have an expiry date. C programming language closeness to the hardware and great portability make it ideal for low-level development such as operating systems, kernels, and embedded systems. Its versatility, efficiency, and good performance make it an excellent choice for high complexity data manipulation software, like databases or 3D animation. The fact is that many programming languages today are better than C for their intended use, which does not mean that they beat C in all areas. C is still unsurpassed when performance is the priority.
