The language that immediately preceded the C language was reportedly the B language, developed by Bell Labs in the late 1960s. C was a language developed to correct the language deficiencies in B, which was seen as a regressive step from its predecessor, BCPL. C allowed efficient data structures and better access to the hardware than B, and became both the predominate language of the 1970s and influenced virtually every major language to follow up to even today's most modern languages.
