Chapter 1, question 1

1.  Give three reasons why C is the best choice of a programming language.

It is very portable.
The compilers are mature and produce fast, optimized, small code.
There is much support for C, since it is widely used.
It is very powerful and can do anything if interfaced with the right libraries etc.
The number of keywords and operators is much smaller than other languages.
It is powerful and gives me very low-level abilities when I want them.
Many operating systems, APIs and libraries are designed primarily to work with C.
It is the basis for C++, C#, and Java.
Zhivago from ##C on irc.freenode.net uses it.
