Just because we already have programming languages does not mean we cannot evolve new languages. Those earlier languages wouldn't even exist had they not been evolved from earlier languages.
Prior to the development of the C Programming language there was the B programming language, which was itself a variant of Combined Programming Language (CPL) known as Basic CPL (or BCPL). The B programming language could not address memory at the byte level, thus modifying the B language to meet this demand resulted in the C language.
While many of the early languages have fallen into disuse, the general-purpose nature of C made it extremely popular across a wide range of programming fields. Virtually every program you use today relies on C code at some point. So although we have new languages to write programs, including C++ which effectively replaces C completely, there is still a great deal of C code out there, and it all needs to be maintained. Some of it will eventually be replaced with new code, but there's no point in replacing code unless you can replace it with something that works more efficiently.
What else can I help you with?
What is an example of a programming language that does not require the programmer to know machine language?
C++ and Visual Basic are computer languages that do not require the programmer to know machine language.
What programming languages are on a computer?
There are loads of programming languages used in computer technology. Some of those are: C C++ C# Python Pearl Javascript Java Html PHP And many more. If you want to read more google for "programming languages".
What is difference between c and oops?
C is a programming language, oops is what you say when you realize you were wrong in something. Note: Some programming languages are known as object-orient languages, C is not one of them, but some derivatives of it (C++, C#, Java) are.
What are some programming languages?
C C++ Java C# Python Ruby LUA Pascal Haskell Visual Basic bash
What are some features of specific programming languages you know whose rationales are a mystery to you?
One feature that often puzzles me is the use of semicolons in languages like Java and C++, which seem unnecessary given that many modern languages do not require them for statement termination. Additionally, the need for explicit memory management in C and C++ can be perplexing, especially when languages like Python and Java handle garbage collection automatically. Finally, the concept of "duck typing" in Python, where type checking is deferred until runtime, raises questions about how it balances flexibility with error detection compared to statically typed languages.
How many programming languages are based on C?
C++, Java, Perl, Python, PHP, JavaScript, LPC, C# is the most popular languages based on C, but there is probably more languages.
What is the Linux program language called?
Linux is a platform, and as such supports a myriad of programming languages. Of these languages C, C++, Java, Python and Perl are very popular, but there are many other programming languages. Some, like Python and Perl are 'interpretive' and similar in this respect to 'BASIC'. C and C++ are compiled, and Java sits somewhere between them.
What are some high level languages?
Some high-level programming languages include Java, Python, C++, and C#. These languages are designed to be easier to read and write compared to low-level languages, making them more accessible for developers.
Difference between C and C programming language?
The C and C programming languages are one and the same. There is no difference between those languages.
List some programing languages?
* Java * C, C++ * Basic * COBOL * Fortran * Pascal * .Net * Visual Basic * etc...
You want some program in c language?
No thank you. I have one already.
What programming languages use a C switch statement?
There are two programming languages which use a C switch statement. The two languages are C and C++, hence the name C switch statement. There may be more, but those are the most obvious ones
