> Can people tell me why they start projects in ... C still? Okay. Based on my current project (Porting AVS out of shit-tier Microsoft C++). I want a region of memory in which I can treat as a bitmap and set pixels at given location to given colours. I know of no other language that gives me this block of memory to draw into. That's probably because I don't know enough. Most languages seem to tout how immutable things are. That's a big word for many people and it just means "does not change". If other languages want my attention then maybe they need more than a "Hello, World!" and some string processing. Show me your malloc equivalent and see if I can go from there.
