C standards
There are three successive standards for the C programming language ANSI C, ISO C and Standard C which are published by the American National Standards Institute(ANSI) and the International Organization for Standardization(ISO).
C is available for many different types of computers. This is why C is called a "portable" language. A program that is written in C and that respects certain limitations can be compiled for many different platforms.
The syntax of C has also influenced many other programming languages, such as C++, C#, and Java, and many more programming languages we use nowadays.
Example code
Here is an example of a program written in C. When built and run it will show "Hello world!", followed by a new line on the computer screen.
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
printf("Hello world!\n");
return 0;
}
#include <stdio.h>gets the standard input/output tools ready for the program to use. This allows text to be displayed (output).int main()is called the main function, and it is where the first code starts being run in a C program.printf("Hello world!\n");is what displays text, in this case "Hello world!" with a new line (\n) at the end.return 0;tells the computer that the program finished and did not run into problems.h
