Pls give the meaning of turbo c?
"version 1.0, in 1987 - It offered the first integrated edit-compile-run development environment for C on IBM PCs, borrowed from Borland's existing Turbo Pascal compiler. It ran in 384KB of memory. It allowed inline assembly, supported all memory models, and offered optimisations for speed, size, constant folding, and jump elimination.


Version 1.5 - It was shipped on five 360 KB diskettes of uncompressed files, and came with sample C programs, including a stripped down spreadsheet called mcalc.


Version 2.0 - Featured Turbo Debugger, Turbo Assembler, and an extensive graphics library. This version of Turbo C was released for the Atari ST, but distributed in Germany only.


Turbo C has been largely supplanted by Turbo C++, introduced May 1990, for both DOS and Windows and later by Borland C++."





"In 1987 Borland purchased Wizard Systems and incorporated portions of the Wizard C technology into Turbo C. Bob Jarvis, the author of Wizard C became a Borland employee. Turbo C was released on 18 May 1987 and an estimated 100,000 copies were shipped in the first month of its release. At about the same time Niels Jensen, and other members of his team who had been working on a Modula-2 compiler, left Borland to form Jensen and Partners, International (JPI). The finished compiler became TopSpeed Modula-2 which exists today as the underlying technology of the Clarion 4GL Programming Language."
