On C history

C standards documents (C99, C11, C17)

"[These documents specify] the form and establishes the interpretation of programs expressed in the programming language C. [Their] purpose is to promote portability, reliability, maintainability, and efficient execution of C language programs on a variety of computing systems. Clauses are included that detail the C language itself and the contents of the C language execution library. Annexes summarize aspects of both of them, and enumerate factors that influence the portability of C programs. Although [these standards are] intended to guide knowledgeable C language programmers as well as implementors of C language translation systems, the document itself is not designed to serve as a tutorial."
