''C'' language : History of "C" language | Why name "C" was given to Language?Definition & History of "C" Language :
C is a general-purpose language which has been closely associated with the UNIX operating system for which it was developed - since the system and most of the programs that run it are written in C.
Many of the important ideas of C stem from the language BCPL, developed by Matrin Richard. The influence of BCPL on C proceeded indirectly through the language B, which was written by Ken Thompson in 1970 at Bell Labs, for the first UNIX system on a DEC PDP-7. BCPL and B are "type less" languages whereas C provides a variety of data types.
In 1972 Dennis Ritchie at Bell Labs writes C and in 1978 the publication of The C Programming Language by Kernighan & Ritchie caused a revolution in the computing world.Dennis Ritchie

In 1983, the America National Standard Institute (ANSI) established a committee to provide a modern, comprehensive definition of C. The resulting definition, the ANSI standard, or "ANSI C", was completed late 1988.
Why name "C" was given to Language?
- Many of C's principles and ideas were derived from the earlier language B. (Ken Thompson was the developer of B Language.)
- BCPL and CPL are the earlier ancestors of B Language
- CPL is common Programming Language. In 1967, BCPL Language (Basic CPL) was created as a scaled down version of CPL.
- As many of the features were derived from "B" Language that's why it was named as "C".
- After 7-8 years C++ came into existence which was first example of object oriented programming. Read more>> Legotech: ''C'' language : History of "C" language | Why name "C" was given to Language?
Introduction to Python Programming Language | Why we use it | It's good things | Comparison to other languages ||What is Python?
Python is a popular programming language.Python is an interpreted, high-level, general-purpose programming language. It was created in 1991 by Guidov van Rossum.
It is used for :
- web development (sever-side).
- software development.
- mathematics.
- system scripting.
- Python can be used on a server to create web applications.
- Python can be used alongside software to create workflows.
- Python can connect to database systems. It can also read and modify files.
- Python can be used to handle big data and perform complex mathematics.
- Python can be used for rapid prototyping pr for production-ready software development.
- Python works on different platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Raspberry Pi, etc.).
- Python has a simple syntax similar to the English language.
- The most recent major version of Python is Python 3. Which we shall be using in this tutorial. However, Python 2 although not begin updated with anything other then security updates is still quite popular.
- In this tutorial Python will be written in a text editor. It is possible to write Python in an Integrated Development. Environment such as Thonny, Pycharm, Netbeans or Eclipse which are particularly useful when managing larger collections of Python files.
- Python was designed to for readability and had some similarities to the English language with influence from mathematics.
- Python uses new lines to complete a command as opposed to other programming languages which often use semicolons or parentheses.
- Python relies on indentation using white space to define scope such as the scope of loops. Functions and classes other programming languages often use curly-brackets for this purpose.
