A programming discipline to write abstract data types, iterators and generic modules using the C language is proposed. Program examples are presented making use of features of the ANSI standard for C. The discipline supports object‐oriented development by allowing the programmer to implement abstractions through modules with well‐defined interfaces. To use the abstractions, the programmer is not required to be aware of how they are implemented.
