C Programming Language

Welcome to the C community!

C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success.
... When I read commentary about suggestions for where C should go, I often think back and give thanks that it wasn't developed under the advice of a worldwide crowd.
... The only way to learn a new programming language is by writing programs in it.

I haven't used Zig myself but I think it could have its place. IMO Rust has moved too far away from C to be something many existing users will move to (and using both in the same project is messy), but Zig seems to integrate well enough that it might.
