The R. in K. & R. is no more.


Dennis Ritchie is dead at the age of 70.

Who the hell is Dennis Ritchie, you ask?

He co-developed Unix.

He developed the language C.

With Brian Kernighan, he published the definitive manual on C, known to nerds the world over as K. & R. It was so cleanly written, they could have taught Strunk and White a thing or two.

In computers, Big Damn Deals don't get much bigger.

Best wishes to the family and friends of Dennis Ritchie, from a fan.
