C programmers can now develop PLC-like control applications without giving up the computer language they are familiar with. immediate C - iC for short - is an extension of the language C. It utilizes the syntax of C to give meaning to statements that have no semantic support in C. In addition to standard variables, which are modified by the flow of instructions, iC provides so-called "immediate" variables whose values are updated whenever a change of iput calls for an immediate change in output. An efficient Data Flow technique implements this strategy.
