And programming in C++ is a magnitude > less error-prone. 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.
