C is a general-purpose programming language. It is an imperative procedural language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, with a static type system. C is designed to act in a manner where it is capable of accessing low-level functionality of a system, while abstracting complex problems which would take tens if not hundreds of lines of assembly language to complete. It has been designed to provide language constructs that map efficiently to machine instructions, with minimal runtime support to ensure cross-platform programming.
