Summary

In this chapter, we went through C11, C18, and the most recent C standards, and we explored C11's various new features. Unicode support, anonymous structures and unions, and the new standard threading library (despite the fact that it is not available in recent compilers and platforms to date) are among the most important features that have been introduced in modern C. We will look forward to seeing new versions of the C standard in the future.

In the next chapter, we begin to talk about concurrency and the theory behind concurrent systems. This will begin a long journey through six chapters in which we'll cover multithreading and multi-processing in order to fulfil our purpose to be able to write concurrent systems.
