C- is a joke language created by John Unger Zussman, and is one of the lesser known programming languages. It was described in the Info World article as follows:

This language was named for the grade received by its creator when he submitted it as a class project in a graduate programming class. C- is best described as a "Low-Level" programming language. In fact, the language generally requires more C- statements than machine-code statements to execute a given task. In this respect, it is very similar to COBOL.

It is not to be confused with wikipedia:C--, a real-world C-like programming language that was intended as a compiler's intermediate representation.
