PZ01DX Programming Language design and Implementation -4th Edition Copyright©Prentice Hall, C overview C developed in 1972 by Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson at AT&T Bell Telephone Laboratories Developed as language to implement UNIX on a DEC PDP- 11. UNIX was a then “small” operating system to compete with the large Multics of MIT and GE. C is more of an environment than a simple language: The C language The C preprocessor (#include, #if,...) The C interface assumptions (.h include files) The C library (“Built-in” functions like printf, malloc,...

PZ01DX Programming Language design and Implementation -4th Edition Copyright©Prentice Hall, C program structure C program is a sequence of procedures and global declarations Each procedure contains local declarations, imperative statements, which can call other procedures Most data are integer data. This allows full flexibility since almost everything is an integer. Today, C and to some extent C++ have become the dominant languages used to develop systems software (operating systems, compilers, utility programs, video games, etc.)

PZ01DX Programming Language design and Implementation -4th Edition Copyright©Prentice Hall, C++ overview Developed by Bjarne Stroustrup at AT&T in 1986 as an extension to C. C++ includes essentially all of C (both good and bad features) Improves on C by adding strong typing Goal was to keep efficiency of C execution, while adding new features C++ adds concept of a class (borrowed from Simula, which was a simulation language developed from Algol). Data was defined local to a class Functions (methods) could access this local data Implemented concept of inheritance of classes
