When did “yep” become “yup”?

Asked by Kardamom (33297points) February 5th, 2020 from iPhone

I now see “yup” in place of “yep”. Yep is short for “yeah”. Not sure why it got changed.

Same with the term “num-num” which is mostly written as “nom-nom” now. I had always thought that num-num was a slightly different take on nummy-nummy, which was a different take on “yummy”.

Whazup?
