C
A programming language widely used where speed and direct control of computer hardware matter
What's it for?
Lets developers build fast software that can work closely with a computer's hardware.
For example…
The badge reader’s firmware is written in C so it can run on a cheap chip without a full operating system.
A small sensor uses C because it has limited memory and needs direct control over the hardware.
Think of it like…
Basic bricklaying: later styles exist, but a lot of the building still rests on it
