Future of C

After the birth of Unix because of the advent of the C language, C revolutionized the kingdom of science and technology.

The various features offered by C and C++are what make C language so popular. In today’s world, every programmer or software developer who has achieved milestones in his life is familiar with the concept of C/C++. Not only it is a fundamental language but its permissive nature allows the user to manage program memory as it offers the feature of dynamic memory allocation which makes it much faster than any other language.

Today, every computer literate person is aware of the term “C/C++ Programming”. After talking about its past and present, let us now discuss the probable future of the C/C++ language.

Some of the shoking future applications of C/C++ are:

1. Astronomy

   Since C and C++ are the only language that is adopted in the field of astronomy (GNU Astronomy Utilities) because of its speed, simplicity, and portability., we can perceive a bright future for Astronomical Engineers who have expertise in C/C++ programming.

2. Accounting and Finance

   C/C++ supports the feature of creating databases that finds applications in making accounting much simpler.

3. Bioinformatics

   It is an emerging field in the world of programming and medical science. As a bioinformatician, you can manage large databases containing a vast amount of information of genetic sequences or the different species in the world through C and C++. This can be done with the help of C programming as it supports the feature of implementing databases and dynamic memory allocation that helps you manage memory and hence proves to be quite fast and efficient.
