I'd just like to add my 2 $.025. C++ is a very tool rich language and is wonderful for application level and some systems level jobs. C is excellent for many lower level programming jobs. I would certainly use C++ for graphical programming and any other type of programming where one should deal with objects. It all comes under the heading of "use the right tool for the job". When comparing C to C+ I think of C as assembler language and C++ as the high level language, and there are some tasks where assembler language is appropriate. -- Jerry Feldman Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9 -- comp.lang.c.moderated - moderation address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ * Re: why still use C?, (continued) + Re: why still use C?, fermath + Re: why still use C?, E.
