Let’s continue our exploration of programming languages with a new, interesting one: C3.

Not a Medium subscriber? 😕 You can read this post for free here 🥳

C3 is a young language, only 5 years old. It was first published in 2021.

C3 is a language that aspires to become a better C.

Fun fact: I have never coded in C, so C3 is my interaction with a C language 🤯

Second fun fact: There’s a C2 Programming Language; C2 inspired C3, but C3 is closer to C and further along in development than C2.

Third fun fact: Many people think that C and C++ are similar languages with the big difference in classes. Not at all. They are different languages; knowing C doesn’t mean you know C++ and vice versa.

Ok, let’s jump into our main topic: creating an LED Numbers application.

The application should work like this: we input 1977, and it returns:

LED Numbers output

Now, keep in mind that we want to show this to newcomers to C3, not to seasoned developers.
