C++ incorporates most of C. So someone can write 'C++' code but can
still have most of the same problems as C.
Meanwhile real C++ code has several times more boilerplate than C. HTF
you can even discern your actual program amidst all that crap is beyond me.
There /are/ proper higher level languages than both C and C++. You can
use one to help develop a working application, then porting that part to
C is a quicker, simpler and safer process.
