Description
C Language Overview
This chapter describes the basic details about C programming language, how it emerged,
What are strengths of C and why we should use C.
The C programming language is a general purpose, high level language that was
originally developed by Dennis M. Ritchie to develop the UNIX
operating system at Bell Labs. C was originally first implemented on the DEC PDP
11 computer in 1972.
In 1978, Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie produced the first publicly available

The C has now become a widely used professional language for various reasons.

Community participation can be loosely defined as the involvement of people in a community in projects to solve their own problems. People cannot be forced to ‘participate’ in projects which affect their lives but should be given the opportunity where possible. This is held to be a basic human right and a fundamental principle of democracy. Community participation is especially important in emergency sanitation programmes where people may be unaccustomed to their surroundings and new sanitation facilities.
