Line 1: '''''The C Programming Language''''' (also known as '''[[K&R]]''' or "'''the white book'''") is a famous [[computer science]] [[book]] which has been influential in the application and development of the [[C programming language]]. The book was written by [[Dennis Ritchie]], who designed the language, and by [[Brian Kernighan]]. The first edition of the book, published in [[1978]], discusses the original usage of C by [[AT&T]]; this "dialect" of C is sometimes referred to as ''K&R C''. In [[1988]] a second edition was published which covers [[ANSI C]]. The book has since been translated into over 20 languages.
