C compiler was written in C language,that is true.But that does not say in what language first C compiler was written.I think first C compiler might have used assembly language instructions.And after that further compilers might have used this(or other compilers that was built the same way) compiler to compile the other newly build compilers.



first c compiler was written in language called B and then it compile on that only
