The new 19-page report from ONCD gave C and C++ as two examples of programming languages...

I'm just astounded that, not only did the article avoid using the obnoxious term "C/C++", but it explicitly refers to them as two separate languages.

Welcome to the C community!

C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success.
... When I read commentary about suggestions for where C should go, I often think back and give thanks that it wasn't developed under the advice of a worldwide crowd.
... The only way to learn a new programming language is by writing programs in it.
