C- programming language
C- is a fictional programming language invented as a joke by John Unger Zussman. It appears in a humorous list of "lesser known languages", published in InfoWorld in 1982 and later posted to Usenet. This is the original text pertaining to C-:
C- ... This language was named for the grade received by its creator when he submitted it as a class project in a graduate programming class. C- is best described as a "Low-Level" pro- gramming language. In fact, the language generally requires more C- statements than machine-code statements to execute a given task. In this respect, it is very similar to COBOL.
It is a spoof of the C programming language.
The other languages in this list are SIMPLE, SLOBOL, VALGOL, LAIDBACK, SARTRE, FIFTH, LITHP and DOGO.
