Description
C Language Overview
This chapter describes the basic details about C programming language, how it emerged,
What are strengths of C and why we should use C.

originally developed by Dennis M. Ritchie to develop the UNIX
operating system at Bell Labs. C was originally first implemented on the DEC PDP
