Oh.  You don't _want_ to; I see.  So you want to make statements
about the relative "productivity" of languages but ignore the
most prominent counter example to your argument because you
don't _want_ to discuss C++.

Doesn't matter.  They did.  You weren't there; you don't know
why they made the decisions they made, whether they gave this or
that serious consideration and dismissed it, or were unaware of
one thing or another, what constraints they were operating
under, etc. 

It is _so easy_ to sit here and throw stones at people toiling
away in the 1960's because they made decisions you don't like.
But, bluntly, you haven't put in the work to have an opinion:
you are ignorant of the history, and actively resist even simple
things like reading the standard to back up your assertions;
when you're shown to be incorrect, you double down or (yes) move
the goalposts by making some other statement.

You came up with your toy language and compiler in the 80s; more
than a decade after C.  It's cute that you felt you _had_ to do
that, but you were in a completely different context than the
1127 folks at Bell Labs who created C.

B _was_ a new language.  Pascal as a useful language beyond
pedagogy postdates C.  Pretty much the rest of this is discussed
in DMR's C history paper, which I'm willing to bet you haven't
bothered to read.

Next you'll tell us you went to the beach and picked up sand so
you could smelt it and create your own silicon wafers, right?

You described its capabilities.  It was vastly more capable than
a PDP-7, and it had only one user: you.

>I also never used Algol68; I'd only seen it in a book.

You said yourself you modeled your language on Algol68; whether
you had used it or not is irrelevant.

You said you could not use a compiler and then literally
described using a compiler.

That was literally the thing you said you address with
left-to-right syntax, and that anyone who proposed such would be
laughed at.  Now it's fine, just not in C.  Because C is bad.
Or something.

Maybe, maybe not.  There may well be other considerations that
factor into that decision.

So by this metric, it's cool if a pilot just jumps into an
airliner, turns it on, and takes off?  The rest of the
pre-flight checklist is just busywork, amirite?

If you want to discuss C on its merits, then discuss C.
Unfortunately for you that would probably mean you'd have to
actually read the relevant documentation.

Do you _really_ think that the people who post here regularly
are not aware that, say, other variable declaration syntaxes
exist that are less messy than C's?  No, seriously, don't give
me some other example from your language, answer that question
honestly: do you _really_ believe that no one here understands
that fact, or just outright disbelieves it?

I can think of any number of reasons: legacy, compatibility,
tool availability, in some cases just personal preference.  For
any one of these, I'm sure that someone has already told you
sometime in the last six months.  My repeating them is unlikely
to have any effect.

No one cares.

Probably not spent years seething about how the rest of the

You really don't understand how multilangauge environments work,
do you?  Maybe have a look at an ABI document at some point.

Ok.  Don't really care.

Why?  What would that show?

If you'd get over yourself for ten minutes and read the HOPL
paper on C, you may see this:

|Fortran influenced the syntax of declarations: B declarations
|begin with a specifier like `auto` or `static`, followed by a
|list of names, and C not only followed this style but
|ornamented it by placing its type keywords at the start of
|declarations.

Much of your ranting amounts to, "how could anyone have possibly
thought this was a good idea?"  Perhaps if you looked into the
history a bit, you may become enlightened as to why anybody
possibly thought it was a good idea.

Amazingly, ALGOL W used syntax much closer to C's, despite being
the immediate predecessor of Pascal.

>That choice had nothing to with limited hardware; it was just the wrong one.

One final quote from HOPL:
|Although we entertained occasional thoughts about implementing
|one of the major languages of the time like Fortran, PL/I, or
|Algol 68, such a project seemed hopelessly large for our
|resources: much simpler and smaller tools were called for.  All
|these languages influenced our work, but it was more fun to do
|things on our own.

So, they were aware of all the languages you've cited as
influences.  And yet they decided to do things differently.

Perhaps they had their reasons.  They are not (in the case of
Ken) and were not (sadly, in the case of Dennis) idiiots or
fools.
