C programming language is the first language we learn at school. This language helps students to create basic concept of programming. Many programming languages has same concept as C language has but the difference could be the syntax used to write programs, function writing method. I would like to discuss about the history of C programming language in short.

The C programming language was developed by system programmer named Dennis Ritchie at AT & T (American Telegraph and Telephone) Bell Laboratories in the early 1970’s. It was originally written for programming under an operating System called UNIX which itself was later rewritten almost entirely in C programming Language. Its name encrypted as C, drivers from the fact that it is based on an earlier version written by Ken thompson, another Bell Laboratories system engineer. He adapted it from a language that was known by the initial BCPL(Basic Combined Programming Language).
