C Programming Language

Welcome to the C community!

C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success.
... When I read commentary about suggestions for where C should go, I often think back and give thanks that it wasn't developed under the advice of a worldwide crowd.
... The only way to learn a new programming language is by writing programs in it.

C will never die

So you see C programmers as sabotaging public infrastructure?

Companies will follow recommendations, but independent C programmers must not follow them. Time will show us. But I believe C will never die.
