Why is C language the mother of programming languages?

This is just a statement.

Some people have two peaks in programming language, one is C language and the other is lisp.

Because in the early days, C language was easy to learn and efficient, and lisp was super powerful.

It's an old almanac now.

The efficiency of lisp language can be comparable to that of C language. But still not as easy to learn as C language.

The popularity of C language is mainly due to the short career of many programmers, and many languages are difficult to learn. Many people stop programming after the age of 30, so what they can master skillfully is the C language they learned in college. For many people, it is an introductory language. Therefore, there is the mother of programming languages.
