A comment on Some Were Meant for C (2017) [pdf]. Parent comment
Back in the Iberian Penisula, Turbo Basic, Turbo Pascal, TASM, NASM reigned on the PC for COTS.
Amiga demoscene was all about AMOS and 68000 Assembly.
I code since 1986, touched my very first C compiler in 1992.
By then I already had used Timex 2068 Basic, 48+ Basic, CP/M on +3 A, Z80, Turbo Basic, Forth, Turbo Pascal 3 - 6, Dbase III Plus, 8086 with TASM.
Thankfully also in 1992, I got hold of Turbo C++ 1.0, and I was settled on my opinion about C.
