C originated as an evolution from BCPL, with B a stopgap, as means to rewrite UNIX. Thing is, BCPL main goal was an interim solution to Bootstrap CPL, nothing more than that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPL_(programming_language) Unfortunely, UNIX's success means we got stuck with something that shouldn't be more than a portable macro assembler. |
