Programming languages: This open-source AI code generator is very good at writing in C Researchers trained new model across 12 programming languages. Written by Liam Tung, Contributing Writer ...

C was designed to be a "portable" language, meaning that programs written in C could be easily moved from one type of computer to another without having to be rewritten.

However, programmers "make up" names for the functions (subroutines) in their own programs, and they make up dozens of them, essentially creating their own language.

The crazy origin story of the C programming language, and how it became a success with the help of some incredibly slow computers.

The software inside devices like elevators is often written in languages like C++ or C, which are famous for allowing programmers to write code that runs very quickly and is quite compact.

ChatGPT is well-known for its coding capabilities, but how will it fare when a dozen languages are thrown at it in one session? The answer: pretty darn good.
