Lisp started out at the same time and represents a different family of languages. In the 1960s there was a lot of work on languages like ALGOL and PL/I which were intended to occupy the niche that C occupied. One problem was that people didn’t know what I/O was going to look like and didn’t realize it didn’t matter for language design because you could relegate I/O to the standard library. |
