"C is a general-purpose programming language used for system programming (OS and embedded programming), programming libraries, game programming and cross-platform programming. This tag should be used with general questions concerning the C language, as defined in the ISO 9899 standard (the latest version, ISO 9899-2018 | ISO 9899:2018, unless otherwise specified — also tag version-specific requests with c89, c99, c11, etc). C is distinct from C plus pC++ and it should not be combined with the C++ tag absent a rational reason." Fair Use Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/c

C is a general purpose programming language that first appeared in 1972.
