The Motorola 68000 series was allegedly designed partly with C in
mind.
I was told this too. However, having taught both M68000 Assembler
and C I have my doubts.
The legend was that C was influenced by PDP-11 assembler. Don't know
how true it is.
C came from B which came from BCPL; B and BCPL predate the PDP-11.
*Influenced by*. Otherwise, they would have used B.
