Where is your data for such sweeping generalizations? According to several surveys, for instance this one: http://langpop.com/ C is one of the most popular computer languages ever. Applications like the linux kernel, many RDBMS like Sqlite, and a LONG etc disprove your supposition that C is used in embedded systems where there isn't a file system. Again, please show us some realworld DATA to prove your asserions. > For example, embedded > processors, but also many mainframe systems.

You happen to have some history working in some special environments Please do not generalize to ALL user of the language.
