B had only one data type, the 'word', which could represent a number or an [[ASCII]] character.<br /> <br /> The syntax was greatly changed from BCPL, and includes much that would look at least vaguely familiar to modern programmers used to [[C]] and its descendants. As B was revised and expanded during the development of Unix, eventually it had acquired sufficient new functionality to deserve a new name, and this is when C was born.<br /> <br /> == Links ==<br /> * [[Wikipedia:B (programming language)|Wikipedia article]]<br /> * [http://man.cat-v.org/unix-1st/1/b Man page from Unix 1st Edition]<br /> * [http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/kbman.html User's Reference to B]<br /> * [http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/who/dmr/bintro.html Some documents about B]</div>
