Google Analytics displays statistics depending on user's language.

I have visitors whose locale is en-us (english), fr (french), but also c. What does this c language code stands for ?

I took a look at reference tables here and here but could not find c.

Thanks in advance !

The only locale names you can count on finding on all operating systems are these three standard ones:

  • "C"
    This is the standard C locale. The attributes and behavior it provides are specified in the ISO C standard. When your program starts up, it initially uses this locale by default.
  • "POSIX"
    This is the standard POSIX locale. Currently, it is an alias for the standard C locale.
  • ""
    The empty name says to select a locale based on environment variables. See Locale Categories.
