The C Programming Language
- The C Programming Language (widely known as K&R or the "White Bible" of C) is a computer programming book written by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie, originally published by Prentice Hall in 1978.
- For Randal Schwartz, getting a copy of the original white K&R book was the key that unlocked his understanding of the C source code he had been exploring across Unix V6 systems since his 1977 dial-up sessions into Reed College. See First Unix Experience in 1977.
