I think that C is completely fine; Language is relatively simple, and so can be easily used/implemented anywhere.
Any dynamic parts and GarbageCollection can be provided by C libraries.
By using source-to-source compilers, C is a good target language.
From this standpoint, we can treat C as a "cross-architecture assembly platform".
Simplicity is beautiful!
- Zardoz84 11y agoC is the assembly for the Unix virtual machine.
- progman 11y agoYes, simplicity is beautiful but C is not state of the art anymore. In comparison to modern languages C is merely a high level assembler. Why fiddle with C when you can use modern languages which can compile to C anyway?
- avera 11y agohigh level assembler - exactly!
