It's hard to imagine a C programmer so professionally ignorant that he's yet to realize C++ is a superset of C.

- anthk 4y agoIronically your comment it's the ignorant one. Try compiling a large C codebase with g++.
- stan680 4y agolots of good examples of why this is wrong here: https://floooh.github.io/2019/09/27/modern-c-for-cpp-peeps.html https://floooh.github.io/2019/09/27/modern-c-for-cpp-peeps.h...

- MobiusHorizons 4y agoI see this comment a lot, but it's not true (at least not any more). Many valid C programs do not compile through the C++ compiler. The standards for C++ and C have deviated over the years.
