It's interesting that C has managed to remain relatively stable whilst everything else has ballooned in size. I spend most of my time writing C# and it has become quite large. I wouldn't want to pick it up from scratch now.
- zabzonk 4y agoactually, C has ballooned in size and complexity. it has come a long way from the first edition of k&r.
