Ray Tomlinson, a pioneering computer programmer, used the @ symbol to connect the user name with the destination address and it has become part of the international language of communication.
Born in New York on April 23, 1941, Tomlinson was an American computer engineer who devised a way to send electronic messages from one computer to another (rather than only between different users of a single machine) and chose the symbol @ to separate the name of the recipient from the destination address.
Tomlinson once said, “I see email being used, by and large, exactly the way I envisioned. In particular, it’s not strictly a work tool or strictly a personal thing. Everybody uses it in different ways, but they use it in a way they find works for them.”
He was inducted in 2012 into the inaugural class of the Internet Hall of Fame. The Internet Hall of Fame in its account of his work commented “Tomlinson’s email program brought about a complete revolution. Tomlinson did change the way people communicate.” He was regarded as the inventor of email. Today, email is used by people all over the world. The worlds of business, government and average citizens have all changed because of our ability to communicate via email. Though Tomlinson passed away in early 2016, he will long be remembered.

contributions will never be forgotten.

(A) It is used to connect the user name with the destination address.
(B) It has become part of the international language of communication.
(C) It is commonly seen in the email system.
(D) It is used by Americans only.
