Today there are so many computer languages that we use, it has been long since we are using the C language. But with new languages being developed , is it that C has eventually become out dated, or there are chances that it might get replaced ???
What is the current scenario ???
even the interpreter for java is written using C
Really ?
I Never knew about it.
Can I know about some Authentic website that mentions this fact that interpreter of Java is based on C ?
Thanks.
C is definitely the most popular “convenient assembler”, that is, all its statements translate directly and nicely to machine code which is run on hardware.
Since there will always be a need to code actual hardware, there will always be need for C.
The principles of C are also an integral part of other languages. For e.g. variable types, and loops etc, can be found in other languages too…
The very first Java compiler developed by Sun Microsystems was written in C using some libraries from C++.
