This is a personal opinion, but C++ seems to be an exercise in
masochism. C is basically a high level assembly language. Neither are
all that portable. Granted, for sheer speed, C is probably as good as
you'll get. Speed just isn't as big a factor these days. Who knows, if
they'd had the processing power available today back in the 80's, maybe
we'd all be using pascal p-code systems.
