WHY USE C LANGUAGE

                                                             WHY USE C

.C is a very powerful and widely used language. It is used in many scientific programming situations. It forms (or is the basis for) the core of the modern languages Java and C++. It allows you access to the bare bones of your computer.

    .   C was adopted as a system development language because it produces code that runs nearly as fast as the code written in assembly language.

                                

 Some examples of the use of C might be  :- 

  • . Operating Systems

  • . Language Compilers

  • . Assemblers

  • . Text Editors
  • . Print Spoolers
  • . Network Drivers
  • . Modern Programs
  • . Databases
  • . Language Interpreters
  • . Utilities
